Milwood Group April 2021 Newsletter Images

Dear Milwood Group Trade Partners & Friends,

Can you believe it is already April? Where has the time gone? We’ve seen so much new business so far in 2021 that the days and weeks are just flying by where we’re all so busy.

This is, of course, great news for us all and the very busy spring looks to be setting us up for a record-breaking summer in the outdoors living market. As the sun starts to come out more often, we’re expecting orders to skyrocket even further as homeowners around the UK look to capitalise on their outside spaces.

We’re looking forward to working with our Trade partners over the coming months to turn these orders into installed verandas, canopies, and carports!

Kind Regards,

Kevin Horne,
Managing Director, Milwood Group

COVID 19 UPDATE

Milwood Group April 2021 Newsletter Images

We would like to confirm that it is business as usual for the Milwood Group. All orders once processed will be scheduled for delivery as normal. Due to the current restrictions, however, we can only have ONE person per vehicle so your delivery would need to be arranged as an Assisted Delivery. This means, subject to your customers acceptance, you would need to ensure somebody is at the delivery destination to help off-load while maintaining appropriate social distancing.

If you have any questions regarding this, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us on 0333 305 5272 or drop us an email at [email protected].

MATERIAL UPDATES

Milwood Group April 2021 Newsletter Image

As you will all be aware, we have seen significant increases in the cost of raw materials over the past few months, and the forecast is that these costs are set to continue to rise! We are pleased to reassure you, though, that we are able to maintain our prices.

The materials used to manufacture our products are worldwide commodities and we have no influence over these base prices. The increases are as follows;

  • Aluminium +27%
  • Glass +8%
  • Poly +10%

*Increase we have seen in the last 3 months.



We will continue to monitor the situation carefully and absorb as much as we can prior to being forced to increase our prices. Our current prices will remain unchanged until the 1st May when we will review the position again.

GREAT EXAMPLE OF MILWOOD TRADE PARTNER DISPLAY MARKETING

The Milwood Group has built our business on working with the best and brightest veranda, canopy, and carport installation professionals in the market. Our tried and tested formula for collaborating with installers has proven profitable for both us and our trade partners over decades.

While the Milwood Group range of products and the second-to-none technical and marketing support we provide to Trade Partners is a large part of this winning formula, the best results come when our Partners go the extra mile in selling our dual offering.

Long-established Trade PartnerSamsonare canopy and veranda experts, with a great track record in delivering perfect installations of our systems each and every time. The team at Samson have really embraced their marketing efforts and we were delighted to see their latest marketing effort in this great outdoors display at their premises.

Installing a demonstration Simplicity 6 veranda to the outside of their building, Samson have also produced and fitted a striking large billboard outlining a key selection of the products they can sell and install, including verandas, carports, and our glass rooms.

Created using the unbranded/white-label marketing material we provide our trade partners, including design layouts and photographs of installations, Samson have created the perfect marketing tool for their prospective buyers. The use of a demonstration veranda is a great idea and one we encourage our Trade Partners to take up when they can, as nothing sells the systems better than the systems themselves!

STUNNING TRADE PARTNER INSTALLATION

Let’s talk about the Veranda of the Week! Our very productive and highly skilled Trade Partner in Wales, Canopy Pro Ltd, has yet again delivered the goods with this fantastic Simplicity 6 installation!

Robin and his team at Canopy Pro recently installed this Simplicity 6 veranda to the rear of a modern family home in St Ilids Meadow in South Wales, providing the homeowner with a luxury outdoor seating area, one of the smartest we have ever seen! This installation has been bespoke designed to compliment the garden features and looks great alongside the sliding doors of the house.

With our standard RAL colour of 7016 Anthracite Grey Semi-Gloss, this install delivers a modern and minimalistic effect, fitting nicely into the colour scheme of the garden furniture. In addition to this, the installation has our popular upgrade of 6mm Grey Tinted Glass in the roof panels, which provides the perfect shaded area for the homeowners.

Canopy Pro Ltd are one of our well-established trade partners and they have years of experience in performing flawless installations of our products across Wales. It’s always a pleasure working with them and we always look forward to seeing the end result!

This Simplicity 6 veranda is attached to the rear of the house on a lovely patio deck area. Finished in our RAL 9016 White Semi-Gloss, this veranda is a great match with the double-glazed windows and doors, making this home look very snazzy.

With the addition of bronze-tinted 6mm glass in the roof the family can enjoy their garden any day of the year, rain or shine. The veranda has a large 5 metre length and 3 metre projection, giving a good-sized footprint where garden furniture is protected from the elements.
