A number of companies nowadays, it seems, want to throw as many facts and figures at their customers as is humanly possible. Abbots, on the other hand, and despite having enough ‘facts and figures’ to impress even the most cynical of readers, prefers to build its company philosophy around strong personal relationships, based upon mutual respect, understanding and trust. And this is fuelled by ensuring the highest standards of customer care and safety, with the company being the first in Europe to achieve the Hire Association of Europe’s Safe-HIRE accreditation. In actual fact, all of its Plant Hire Equipment is serviced and tested to HAE guidelines and is available for next day delivery to keep customers’ businesses running smoothly and safely.
Another first came in June 2010 when Abbots became the first company to be FSC Certificated to supply Wood Blocks in line with FSC requirements. Abbots manufacture their Woodblocks and Pipe Supports at their Off-Site Pre-fabrication facility.
Abbots have in excess of 15,000 products in stock to support their customers’ on-site needs, from Channel, Studding, Pipe Supports and Fixings through to Personal Protection Equipment and Plant Hire. The company’s experienced staff, coupled with its extensive supplier base, dictates that however weird and wonderful the product requested is … they can get it!
Putting the customer at the heart of all of its operations, Abbots is able to offer a benchmark delivery performance and a truly comprehensive range of high quality products. Actually, the mission of this innovative company has remained the same since it first opened its doors for business, and that has been to provide cost-effective, ground breaking solutions for a wide range of discerning customers: customers that can’t afford to compromise when it comes to quality workmanship.
Abbots is committed to continuously utilising, creating and developing resources and capabilities, which enable its customers to be competitive in their own industries providing an even deeper breadth of expertise for its customers to call upon.
It should go without saying then, that when you need practical cost-effective solutions you should call one organisation first – Abbots Engineering Supplies! To find out more, telephone 01923 804000. Alternatively, visit the website at www.abbots-uk.com
