We’ve updated two of our software programmes to reflect this new change. Adrian Wild, founder of HBXL explains why HBXL have teamed up with Crystal Direct:
“We chose Crystal Direct as our PVC-U product partner because they offer commercially attractive pricing backed up with fast nationwide delivery. They supply a massive range of made-to-measure window and door configurations in a choice of fifteen colours and wood-grain finishes – aligning with any architectural style.
“Crystal Direct are a company very similar to HBXL. Their Chairman was originally an installer. But he found it difficult to find a company who could fulfil his needs – so he set about setting up his own company over 25 years ago to fill the gap. Quotations are typically turned around in 24-48 hours, there’s no minimum order quantity and delivery is free.”
Industry increases…
The PVC-U market is forecast to grow by £5.2 billion by 2017 – that’s a massive increase from a 2013 base market value of £3.6 billion!
The largest product growth is expected to be made-to-measure PVC-U windows, followed by composite doors – and with a significant percentage of growth coming from the building and home improvement sector, HBXL has recognised the importance of being able to accurately draw up building plans and accurately quote for PVC-U products.
