Eric Birch began his career as a builder of fibre glass dinghies before progressing to the manufacturing of the prestigious Jaguar Yacht. That was in 1965. Fast forward to 1993 and Eric applied his expertise and pioneering talents to architecture, where he was instrumental in the introduction of fibre glass roofing. The demand for this innovation was so strong, that the launch of TekSeal, a fibreglass roofing solution, has become a valuable addition to the CYB Glass Fibre Technology portfolio. Today, Angela Lipscombe is continuing the exceptional high standards set by her father (who recently retired), ensuring that CYB is coveted as one of the region’s
most respected companies within the roofing field. However, Angela takes nothing for granted and acknowledges that customer loyalty has played a huge part in the success of the company. With that in mind, she is continuing the family tradition of providing oneday workshops to tutor enthusiasts - be it companies or individuals - in the many uses and merits of GRP. Angela is also a great advocate of local community and shows her support, by sponsoring Rochford 100 Rugby club. It is here that she actively encourages her two sons Josh and Jacob to play and believes that sport is great for their development. This is clearly a passion within the Lipscombe household, as husband Andrew is
both a qualified rugby coach and sports massage therapist and the boys also play for Leigh Cricket Club. When she isn’t working at CYB, doing Yoga or walking the family dog, Angela encourages her 17 year old son Josh’s entrepreneurial spirit by helping him with his urban clothing business ‘Klosure’ Clothing, which with its distinctive logo designed by 12 year old brother Jacob, is already thriving. www.klosureclothing.bigcartel.com For more information about the services CYB Glass Fibre Technology provide, please call 01268 696094 or visit www.cybglassfibre.co.uk
