With over 30-years experience supplying composite cladding projects throughout the UK, we are uniquely positioned to partner with architects and main contractors to achieve project success. Our technical team can provide practical solutions to suit the demands of any cladding project.
Do you offer composite cladding installation services?
No. We are supply only but we can put you in touch with installers who have fixed our composite cladding systems before. Our systems are easy to install and can be completed by any competent carpenter.
