The site at Carlton in Lindrick was purpose built for Mandoval in the 1970s when production was moved from Lightwater, Surrey. In 1998, Cafco purchased Mandoval and took over the facility which at the time was manufacturing cement based spray materials as well as the associated primers and topcoats. Following the Cafco acquisition, Cafco introduced new lightweight products into the market to compete with new products coming into the market.

The factory has been further enhanced by the addition of a new office block and investment in improving the plant has resulted in the factory now being capable of producing in excess of 24 million kilograms of spray product per annum.
