PROPOSALS are in for a major new factory in North Wales that would create 140 jobs.

Knauf Insulation is behind the £170m plans for a manufacturing unit at Shotton, Deeside, which would be its second site in the region.

It plans to take in 120,000 tonnes of raw materials per year - basalt, slag and recycled rock wool insulation and, using an electric melting furnace, turn that into 100,000 tonnes of rock mineral wool (RMW) insulation.

This will then be used in housing and industrial insulation.

Knauf has submitted a scoping opinion request to Flintshire council ahead of an Environmental Impact Assessment.
