Lead times on popular colour ranges cut to five days
» SMART ARCHITECTURAL Aluminium has announced a cut to the lead times of its three most popular colour ranges . Covering more than fifty of the company ’ s most requested paint finishes , lead times on the Smart Naturals , Sensations and Cotswold colour ranges have all now been reduced from ten days to just five , with immediate effect .
Commenting on the announcement , Smart ’ s managing director , Eddie Robinson said : “ Our continued investment in new plant and equipment has given us capacity to paint over 800 metres of material every hour , which has enabled us to introduce these much shorter lead times on a wide range of our most popular colours . We now have three state-of-the-art paint lines which combine to deliver a lustrous and durable finish across our entire product portfolio , a finish which is capable of withstanding even the harshest of environments .”
The new shorter lead times includes both profiles and painted accessories – which can be ordered either to match the profiles or in a different colour to provide a contrast .

The company ’ s new consumer brochure has been given an extensive facelift to not only include new door designs and glass designs but to also be able to stylishly sit alongside lifestyle magazines in UCD ’ s customers ’ customers ’ homes .
One significant addition is the inclusion of doors that can accommodate a very important member of the end user ’ s household , as Sales Director Haydon Statham explains : “ People want composite back doors with cat and dog flaps , which the industry does not readily offer so the homeowner is given a PVC back door too often .
“ The new brochure shows the varied range of doors that are on from UCD to better match their needs ; while also allowing the customer to imagine the door on their home and in their life .
“ Alongside our new online door designer , the new brochure is another piece in the puzzle to making it even easier for our customers to sell our doors and to boost their business .”
