UP TO 60 jobs are at risk at Primaflow Wellington in a reorganisation of the company's national distribution network.

Some 60 staff members at the Castle Road, Chelston Business Park premises, one of two national distribution centres, have been told the company, which supplies accessories and related installation materials for plumbing and heating systems, is to consolidate operations at its other national distribution centre at Birmingham as the recession continues to hit builders hard.

Katherine Pang, HR director at the Wellington site, told the WWN: "People are obviously in shock after being told."
