Despite
a challenging year for the built environment sector, the UK leader in
aluminium guttering, rainwater drainage and eaves solutions, Marley
Alutec is proud
to have adapted to new working realities – as it continues to deliver
for its customers’ needs.
Throughout
the past twelve months, Marley Alutec has been able to consistently
ensure prompt delivery times and high levels of customer service. Whilst
the current crisis
has greatly affected global and domestic supply chains, Marley Alutec
has been able to maintain consistently short lead times across many of
its most popular products. Thanks to the company’s proficient production
capabilities and exceptional stock management,
it has been able to continue offering a two-day delivery lead time on a
number of industry-leading gutters and downpipes product ranges in
Heritage Black and Anthracite Grey, as well as all its Elite roof
outlets.
Similarly,
the company is still able to offer its renowned technical and sales
project support across all purchases, providing advice and guidance to
those in the trade
at all stages of a build; from planning to installation. This has only
been made possible through Marley Alutec’s ability to retain
pre-pandemic staffing levels. During the lockdown period, the company
went to great efforts to ensure that its work adhered
to strict social distancing measures, with many members of staff
working remotely. In doing so, the leading supplier has once again
demonstrated its credentials as a reliable and strong trade partner.
Additionally,
as the year closes out, the company is once again recruiting new staff
members in preparation for a busy 2021. This effort has been supported
at all times
by the company’s parent partner; Aliaxis, the global leader in
manufacturing and distributing advanced plastic piping systems.
Nick
Glover, Head of Sales and Marketing at Marley Alutec commented: “We are
really proud of what we have achieved in 2020. This has been a crisis
without precedent,
but our pre-pandemic commitment to investing in strong internal
production capabilities and highly-qualified staff members has put us in
good stead to tackle the problem head-on. As a result, we are able to
offer the highest level of support to our customers
and move into the new year positively and confidently.”
Marley
Alutec is looking towards the future with a number of additional
product innovations set to be announced in early 2021. Also, the company
has recently launched
its first virtual RIBA accredited CPD program, which was well-received
within the sector. The engaging online seminar contains important
architectural information pertaining to the company’s systems and allows
for discussion between recipient and trainer.
Moving forward, the company plans to make more resources available
online as it continues to adapt in the face of a socially distanced
world.
