As a specialist in the fenestration sector Kolorseal was purpose built to provide colour coating solutions to an ever developing market. Debbie Hendry, Managing Director talks to Adrian Barraclough, Chairman of Quickslide, who is concerned there are less and less niche experts like Kolorseal in the sector, that can offer professional bespoke colouring services.
Craftsmanship Counts
With regulations becoming tougher across the sector, Adrian believes there are few, true specialists, recognised as experts in the field, who can offer the consistent quality and craftsmanship that Kolorseal can.
Adrian comments, “Although some consider specialisms such as colour coating, integrated blind manufacturing, window arch fabrication, glass production etc., as straightforward and easy to replicate, this is not the case due to complicated techniques that true specialists make look simple.
The idea of creating a niche service comes from understanding the market and bringing about much needed opportunities which become the backbone of a customer’s growth.
For some, they have learned the hard way about trying to offer the same type of service that a niche business offers. A number of Kolorseal clients have returned to the company after trying to handle their own in-house colour coating service as they soon realised that it is not plain sailing.”
As a longstanding provider of bespoke solutions, the Kolorseal team has been trained to the highest industry standards and they grasp the pitfalls that can occur when spraying different surface types. Adrian believes that whilst imitation is the highest form of flattery, when it comes to getting it right this takes time, research and very hard work.
Colour is fast becoming more than just an option for fabricators to offer and it is evident that consumers are now aware of the broad choices available to them.
Every single project is unique
Handling and coating by Kolorseal means all the colouring aspects of any job are fully understood, with careful attention placed on the smaller details – and they really count.
Understanding and hoping to imitate the standards that an expert has explored, tried and developed over 20 years is simply not possible in a matter of a few months.” Adrian continued.
“Becoming a specialist is no mean feat and this isn’t highlighted anywhere better than Kolorseal.
Would would you want your plumber doing your electrics because he’s good at plumbing? Or would you be happy for an accountant to be the structural engineer calculating loads on your house or a neurologist doing your heart by-pass? They may be smart and competent at a similar profession but in essence the subtle differences could disastrous.
“Debbie and her team fully grasp what is required and how to achieve the best results. Looking to the future, whilst some may believe that they can provide the skills of highly trained operatives, it could well be the case of needing to revert to using a specialist due to the losses incurred and expensive lessons learned.”
Meeting The Needs Of The Industry
By launching a company that serves fabricators manufacturing for all property types, from high end bespoke to commercial and corporate buildings through to supplying services for small builders and community projects, Kolorseal is best placed to meet the needs of the industry via its modern 18,000 sq. ft facility in Huddersfield.
“Leading a market as an independent, clear headed business owner, who is totally integrated into the sector with unique options is something fabricators need – they rely upon this to get projects completed to the highest standard in the fastest timescale.
“Every Kolorseal project is unique and of the highest quality – because in simple terms, the company knows what it is doing.” Adrian concluded.
Kolorseal is an award winning, niche colour coating provider, exclusively serving the fenestration and construction sectors. Visit the website www.kolorseal.co.uk for more information.
