Extractor Factory 2018

Extractor Factory 2018

Grommets Ltd are pleased to have had a new extractor system installed in our factory during the month of May. The installation work was carried out by a local company who were able to carry out the work outside of our factory operating hours. This meant there was minimum disruption for our production team and we were able to keep our presses running as usual!

Silicone Price Increase

Silicone Price Increase

Despite increases to the costs of our raw materials we held our prices throughout 2017. We have recently been informed by our suppliers of more price increases this year, with some prices up by 15%, in particular, the specialist rubber Silicone. While we endeavor to hold prices during normal fluctuations, we are sure that you will appreciate that we have to amend our pricing structure in the current climate. We have and will work to keep these prices to a minimum; however, as of 1st February 2018, any Silicone products will increase by 5%. You will receive confirmation of this by letter, should you be a customer that purchases any Silicone products.
