Championing British-Made Excellence
17-10-2023
A recent survey conducted by Made In Britain reveals an encouraging sentiment among the British populace and businesses. A staggering 58% of British consumers and 47% of enterprises express a preference for goods produced within the UK.
Opting for British-made products goes beyond personal preference; it's a powerful means to fortify the UK economy, bolster local jobs, and nurture communities. Moreover, it serves as an environmentally responsible choice by diminishing our carbon footprint, primarily by curbing mileage and reducing fuel emissions. Supporting British manufacturing frequently translates into shorter lead times, a testament to the renowned quality of British-made goods.
In 2008, Elite Precast Concrete was founded by its current Commercial Director, Richard Doody. This Shropshire-based enterprise has garnered acclaim for its commitment to delivering quality, innovative products while upholding exceptional customer service.
In our pledge to champion local suppliers and industry, we are proud to declare that 100% of our products are crafted within Shropshire. Our extensive array of offerings, from concrete blocks and ballast blocks to safety and security barriers, power protection, and drainage products, are readily available ex-stock and delivered within days of ordering.
Our customers also benefit from the assurance that our products bear the British Standard Kitemark, a symbol of unwavering adherence to the standards of safety, quality, and performance. The Kitemark, with its rich legacy of over 120 years, enjoys the trust of consumers and businesses alike.
As full-fledged members of the MPA (Mineral Products Association), the prominent trade association encompassing aggregates, asphalt, cement, concrete, dimension stone, lime, mortar, and silica sand industries, we are deeply committed to fostering best practices, sustainability, and the dissemination of knowledge. This dedication serves as a steadfast safeguard for the future of our industry.
Reflecting on this, Richard Doody, the Commercial Director, shared, "As a Shropshire native, it holds great significance to me to support fellow British enterprises, whether it's within our supply chain, infrastructure development, or ensuring the safety and welfare of our people and assets. Elevating our economy contributes to a more enriching life for all."
