Certain products will increase significantly in price for deliveries from 1st October 2005. Our longer term aim is to stop UK production of non profitable or non competitive lines. Some lines may be transferred to our China factory. Customers who place scheduled orders will be notified about any products they buy, which are subject to the rationalisation. rationalization. We can advise customers about items likely to be discontinued.
