The contract incorporates the supply of stairparts, mouldings and outdoor balustrade range, with the new partnership making it easier for independent merchants to access Richard Burbidge products.

The partnership allows Fortis members to work more closely with the manufacturer and will provide more opportunity to sell Richard Burbidge’s wide range of products.”
