More than 70 jobs lost as PVCu windows maker enters liquidation

More than 70 members of staff have been made redundant as a Hampshire-based PVCu windows manufacturer and installation company has ceased trading and entered liquidation, a recent news report in the local business media has been able to find.

Dorwin Ltd had a turnover of almost £9m in its 2013/14 financial year and had traded in the Alton area for more than 40 years. The firm entered liquidation after failing to gain the support of its major customers for a company voluntary arrangement (CVA) process, which could have ensured its survival.

On 2 July, the company embarked upon a CVA but by 28 July, it was unable to meet its obligations and ceased trading.
