Supply that does not need chasing
SAP does not compete on being the cheapest line item. We compete on the plate being there when you need it, and someone picking up when it is not.
Availability, not just speed
The reason customers move to us is almost always the same: their last supplier stopped answering the phone. Ours is the number that gets picked up.
The full range
Systems, components, software, fixings, accessories, show plates and finished plates. Most customers consolidate two or three suppliers into one account.
Your pricing, not a list
Every account is priced to its volume and mix. There is no public price list because there is no single price.
Compliance you can evidence
BS AU 145e certified constructions, ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001, BNMA membership and downloadable certificates for your diligence pack.
Make or buy, or both
Produce in house with a system, buy finished plates ready made, or run both. We supply either way and will tell you honestly which suits your volume.
Ordering that fits your day
The Trade Portal brings your prices, branches and artwork online, so orders do not have to wait for office hours.

Switching supplier?
Moving supplier is mostly a logistics problem, not a commercial one. We handle it in three parts: a stock and equipment review so nothing runs out mid-changeover, install and training if you are taking a system, and a check of your record keeping so compliance does not lapse in the gap.
