EPD Insulation Group, the independent, family-run insulation and associated building materials specialist established in 2011, has appointed its first full board of Directors.
The business reports it has grown to become one of the leading independent building materials distributors, covering all points from Manchester in the North, Bristol in the West, Southampton in the South, and Great Yarmouth in the East.
The senior management has had a recent change, as CEO Steve Boon and MD Tony Brown gather the core skill-sets needed and establish a board of Directors that can take the business forward to new levels of success. Accordingly, the new board consists of Steve Boon, CEO; Tony Brown, MD; Lloyd Frith-Robinson, Finance Director; Steve McMillan, Commercial Director; Ben Popple, Sales Director and Neil Farrow, Marketing Director.
Steve Boon said: “As we see the business going through a record growth period, it was evident that we needed the right skills and personalities to take charge of their respective departments and manage that growth in the most effective way.”
Servicing its current customers from a 90,000 sq. ft central distribution hub based in Peterborough and a 46,000 sq. ft hub west of Cambridge via a large and diverse fleet of delivery vehicles, EPD has now put in place the next phase of its growth.
With a large stock holding in excess of £3.5million and the large delivery radius, the distributor says it is able to supply stock items from the warehouses on a next day basis if required. Additionally, it has invested in a brand-new digital delivery system, which ensures customers are able to track their order in real time via phone or email.
EPD works with some of the biggest, and most established brands in the industry, including Kingspan, Unilin, Rockwool, Ecotherm, Mannok, URSA, Superglass, Hadley Group, Jablite, and Libra Systems. Apart from insulation, the company also supplies other vital products such as plywood, timber and fixings, as well as being one of the largest independent importers of Plasterboard to the UK.
Making sure all of this “runs like a well-oiled machine,” EPD says it has a friendly and approachable sales and client services team who offer knowledgeable, efficient, and effective solutions. Moreover, the business says that its “strong supplier relationships, large stock holding, diverse fleet of vehicles, central distribution hubs and friendly, knowledgeable sales team mean that it is able to offer some of the most competitive pricing and high-quality services in the marketplace.”
