Carl F Groupco secures KAT UK hardware contract

KAT UK has selected Carl F Groupco to supply all inline patio hardware products. Drawing on the benefits of its independent distributor status, Carl F Groupco has sourced the best components to suit KAT UK’s demanding requirements from a select range of leading manufacturers.  

Supporting KAT UK’s focus on environmental responsibility, Carl F Groupco has adopted a Kanban packaging system which reduces waste and simplifies the ordering process. Orders are delivered weekly using customised, re-useable packaging designed to reduce the carbon footprint.

Market leading products supplied include 6 and 8 hook inline patio locks, robust and sleek patio handles, stainless steel patio wheel sets and Carl F Groupco’s branded CFG profile cylinder.

Carol Sherlock, Operations Director at KAT UK comments:

”It was a big decision for us to change supplier for this hardware contract, a decision based on price, quality and service.  It is also vital for us to have a strong relationship with our major suppliers, something both companies have worked hard to achieve over the last 12 months.”

KAT UK specialises in aluminium timber and uPVC fabrication: products supplied include bi-fold and sliding patio doors plus PVC sash and aluminium casement windows.
