T&D students visit AxBoard

Ax Board 005

Mr Geoghegan’s Year 12 Technology and Design students recently visited AxBoard with Mr Ryan Boyle, Miss Aoidin D’Arcy (student teacher) and Mr Gabriel Morris (technician).

AxBoard are a privately owned and managed company, based in Loughbrook Industrial Estate, which specialises in supplying furniture for kitchens, bedrooms, home studies and utility rooms.

All their units can be ordered built or flat-packed.

The students were shown around the factory floor and were given an insight into the everyday workings of a manufacturing business.

They were shown how the edges of the units were veneered and were also shown a CNC cutting machine in operation.

The staff and pupils are very grateful to Oliver for his tour of AxBoard.
