The Plumbing and Heating Division of Travis Perkins, which includes City Plumbing Supplies and PTS along with six other brands, has joined the BMF.
Travis Perkins’ P&H division has a turnover of £1.4bn, operates from over 400 branches around the UK, and serves a broad range of customers. City Plumbing focuses on local plumbers, heating engineers and bathroom installers, while PTS serves larger contract customers. Other brands within the division distribute to independent local merchants, and offer specialist services, such as solar, thermal and underfloor heating packages.
BMF MD, John Newcomb, said: “Plumbing and Heating is one of the fastest growing areas of BMF membership and we are delighted that Travis Perkins’ P&H division is joining the number. It is just over a year since its colleagues in Travis Perkins’ General Merchanting division returned to membership. During that time it has proved to be a proactive member. I’m sure that the Plumbing and Heating division will also want to take part and make a difference.”
Paul Tallentire, Divisional CEO, Plumbing and Heating Division, Travis Perkins, said: “The BMF plays an important role in bringing the industry together and representing its interests. We recognise the value in that and look forward to becoming involved, in particular by contributing to the BMF’s specialist P&H Forum.”
