Office upgrades
20 July 2020
In preparation for returning to working from the office we have been working with Allgood, our wonderful ironmongery specialists, to upgrade our space in line with new Covid-19 working practices.
This includes using Allgood’s Modric contactless soap dispensers and paper towel dispensers and also changing all our door handles to their Contego range, which is manufactured using an alloy with the appearance of Stainless steel, but which has the antimicrobial properties of copper.
Thanks to Allgood for their specification expertise and should you wish to know more please visit their website for more details.
