FEBRUARY 2020 | 25 News Read online at www.proinstaller.co.uk NE DIY FOR THE WHOLE OF UK MB DIY, a specialist supplier to the home improvement industry, has recently opened its brand new 35,000 sq ft headquarters in Middlesbrough. Established in 1987 as an independent supplier to the window and door in- dustry, MB DIY has grown from humble beginnings as a two-man trade counter to now employing over 70 staff with a trade outlet and retail showroom and its own 12 strong delivery fleet. Mike Greenup, Manag- ing Director of MB DIY commented: “It became apparent several years ago that our continued growth would soon result in the need for significantly larger premises. Our new purpose-built facility has satisfied this requirement and enabled us to carry even more stock, adding new lines to our already wide product range in order to better service our customers’ needs.” MB DIY is still a fam- ily-owned business that prides itself on maintaining traditional family values and credits its commitment to providing a massive product range, and great service to customers for its growth. General Manager Carl Chillingsworth explains: “One of the key reasons for our success is the rela- tionships we’ve built with both our customers and suppliers over the years. We’ve forged strong links with major suppliers such as Yale/Lockmaster, Era/ Fab & Fix, GU, Stormguard, Maco, Roto, Hoppe, Avocet, Fullex and Fuhr. We carry all of these brands in stock and can deliver throughout the UK on a next day ser- vice; this makes us a great one stop shop for both the fabrication and repair markets.” MB DIY supplies goods for both the window and door and home improve- ment industries. In addi- tion to PVC, Composite and Timber hardware and furniture, they supply roofline products such as guttering, facias and soffits, home automation products, external cladding and in- ternal decorative wall and ceiling cladding, composite flooring and vinyl flooring, composite decking and much more. Steve Bailey, Market- ing Manager at MB DIY, commented: “Our focus for the next year is to increase awareness throughout the UK of who MB DIY are and the service levels we can provide. We’ve tradi- tionally been extremely strong in our home region of the North East, but we’re now developing relation- ships with customers in other parts of the country which we’re already start- ing to see grow into key accounts.” www.mbdiy.co.uk Major supplier of composite door components with leading brands carried in stock and nationwide next day delivery service available.
