Global polymer group Rehau has strengthened its relationship with long-standing customer, DecorEdge, after purchasing the Manchester-based edgebanding firm’s asset base and welcoming two key team members to the business.
This arrangement came into effect from 31st January and is the next step in Rehau's growth strategy within its interior solutions division.
Customers of DecorEdge will gain immediate access to Rehau's extensive range of edgebanding, surface and storage solutions.
DecorEdge, a specialist distributer of edgeband based in Manchester, has been a customer of Rehau for over 14 years, and a key distributer of its edgeband across the north of England and further afield.
Colin Hunt, MD at DecorEdge, will work closely with Rehau's head of sales, Scott Williams, to maintain continuity between Rehau and the newly acquired customer base.
Scott says: "This is a great fit for both parties. Customers can look forward to receiving the same product, by the same staff, offering the same great service, but now backed up with a wider product portfolio and specialist support.
“DecorEdge is a trusted distributor with extensive knowledge of the UK market. The new relationship enables Rehau to vertically integrate its edgeband distribution which will benefit Rehau, DecorEdge and our combined customer base.”
