The latest news from Door Panels....
Just as Andy Carrol wants to live up to his £35 Million price tag by banging goals in for Liverpool Door Panels has, following a major investment in plant and processes, released flat panel price promise. We will beat any genuine flat panel price, that’s white, woodgrain or colours, from anyone- anywhere!
As Sven Hlywiak Managing Director said, our promise to beat any genuine flat panel price, that’s white, woodgrain or popular Cool Colors will be a big saving to many struggling installer and fabricators in the current climate. We want to leverage our low cost base, generate volume, to help all Installers.
Sven, the pioneering force behind the £50 Million Cool Color success, is determined to drive the unique Cool Color technology across the UK and Europe. The facts are, he continued, Cool Colors reflect up to 80% NIR proportion of sunlight, thus reducing heating of the surfaces by up to 20% - that’s 4 times better than standard foils.
With our ever increasing range Sven concluded that his vision for Installers everywhere was ‘when they think Cool Colors – its fit and forget!
So whoever your current supplier, this is an excellent opportunity to buy flat panels at a low, low price and better still a woodgrain or coloured door panel that hasn’t had a claim in 5 years – stay in the premier league alongside Andy Carrol and open a trading account with Door Panels today!
It was nearly 3 years before we released another edition of The Panel.
During our time away the Industry has continued to change and evolve at a rapid pace with UPVC system company consolidation and Installers, with no economy of scale benefits, fragmenting further. However the one thing almost every company has failed to address is the absolute necessity of a price increase to all companies in the fabricated door and window supply chain. Systems extruder to the final consumer.
This never makes for an easy conversation. For many the prospect of talking a price increase induces dread and sleepless nights. Industry Directors and owners, still in business, have to be commended for mitigating rising costs, driving through labour saving efficiencies, slashing budgets and cutting non essential expenditure. How much further can the industry go before quality and service are comprised or worse still…… like the retail giant Woolworths they’re out of business.
Its documented in daily newspapers, television and the internet. Crude oil prices will continue, for the foreseeable future, to impact raw materials with The US Recovery, China’s insatiable thirst for growth and rioting Egyptians creating a potential risk to the three million barrels shipped daily through the Suez Canal. The Panel says don’t be afraid. If you provide quality products with a supporting service then empathise with your customers, discuss the economic facts but remain firm in what you’re saying.
The objective of any business is to make a profit.
