Wilsons Auctions, the UK and Ireland’s largest independent auction company, has been appointed to oversee the auction series for Jans Composites Ltd, Jans Offsite Solutions Ltd, and ETRUX Limited, following their administration. Acting on behalf of Scott Murray and Ian Davison of Keenan CF, the Joint Administrators, Wilsons Auctions will manage the sale of assets through a structured auction process.

The Jans Group specialise in fields such as composite manufacturing, modular builds and electric commercial vehicles. Jans Composites specialises in lightweight but durable GRP (glass reinforced plastic) products, while Etrux operates in the hire, lease and conversion of commercial vehicles. Jans Offsite Solutions constructs buildings off-site.

Presented as an Auction Series, several dedicated auctions have been created for bidders to navigate detailed catalogues. The auctions will follow a timed online format with online bidding only. The first auction will open on Thursday 27^th June. Each auction will give registered bidders a 24-hour window of opportunity to bid online before the auction begins to timeout 24 hours later. Bidding will be open to the public.

The assets will be offered with no reserve, which means all auction Lots will be sold to the highest bidder. With over 350 Lots, highlighted in the catalogues include CNC machines, commercial paint booths, industrial equipment, modular buildings, vehicle accessories, commercial and manufacturing machinery, power tools and much more.

The most valuable asset available at auction is a Hundegger Bonded Composite Panel Production Line. Interested parties should make note that this asset is located at Dungannon, Moy. All other assets will be located at Jans Antrim premises.

Plant, Machinery and Commercial Manager and Auctioneer Richard McFetridge commented, “We’re delighted to be acting on behalf of Keenan CF with Ian Davison and Scott Murray on this case. Jans Composites was at the forefront of the UK’s composites industry and this auction acts as an ideal opportunity for companies and individuals in that industry, and others, to purchase additional quality stock or upgrade their existing portfolio. The inventory of machinery and equipment has been well maintained.”

“Wilsons Auctions has worked with Keenan CF team on many administration and liquidation cases, and it is an honour they continue to trust our auction services across various industries and sectors,” he concluded.
