We reported late in 2009 that plastic prices have remained very volatile despite the global recession. This lead to some price increases for PVC-U pressure pipes earlier this year. Since then we have also had to raise other prices by an average of 6%.
All the new prices are in our latest handbook which is available now. If you haven't received your personal copy, please let us know by calling or by clicking here and we will despatch one immediately.

This year, they are raising funds for the Great North Children's Hospital Appeal, and would welcome your support.
The hospital will bring together nearly all the Norths children's experts under one roof providing everything a sick child might need in one central hub. It has been designed especially to feel like anything but a hospital and to make sure they can really help reduce the stresses and anxieties children can experience when they are in hospital.
If you would like to donate to the appeal, and help our team achieve it's target of £2000, please click on the link below.
