Ellbee – A British manufacturer who continues to evolve
Published:  11 January, 2008

Ellbee Ltd. has built a reputation as a first class manufacturer producing quality products for their customers at outstanding value. With over 50 years manufacturing experience, Ellbee Ltd. supply several ranges of shower enclosures to the bathroom industry, including own brand and OEM products, and their retail brand, Profile Plus, which is targeted at the mid market sector.

Sales and Marketing Director, John Armstrong says “We are proud to be a truly British manufacturer and we are investing heavily at our site in Pudsey, West Yorkshire to ensure we continue to deliver top quality shower enclosures at the best possible value”.

Working in partnership with the entire supply chain forms a cornerstone of the company values and principles. Ellbee Ltd. believe that by working with suppliers and customers they support this principle which is the key to long term success.

“Our sales team are reporting increased competition from other manufacturers who are importing a cheap product and are selling direct to retail consumers. This cannot be good for the supply chain in the long term, as they are simply undercutting and bypassing existing customers.

Ellbee Ltd. are committed to British manufacturing and work very closely with their distribution partners to ensure they offer a complete package which keeps them ahead of the competition.

“As we continue to review and evolve our offer we have shortened lead times, reduced costs and improved distributor and retail margins”.

Ellbee Ltd. also prides itself on its in-house customer service department. With fully trained customer sales advisors or service engineers just a phone call away, any query is resolved quickly and with minimum disruption.

During 2008, following an extensive strategic review, Ellbee Ltd. will be introducing to the market two new ranges along with additional products to the Profile Plus brand.

Profile Concept

A range of fully framed enclosures, ideal for the contract market, will be launched in February 2008. The product range has been designed in consultation with the installer, as difficult installation and poor quality can often be the biggest headache for this customer.

“With this range we have developed a product that the installer can simply buy, fit and forget covered with a 10 year manufactures guarantee”.

Profile Plus

A range of semi frameless enclosures, including walk in panels, quadrants, sliders, pivots and bath screens, will be complemented by the latest rise and fall hinge to provide even greater options on pivot, saloon, corner entries and bath screens.

“With this range we have a product that the consumer is able to look, touch and compare against similar alternatives and be assured there’s nothing quite like it, fully backed up by a lifetime manufactures guarantee”

Profile Design

A range of frameless enclosures, completes the offer and will be available in the summer of 2008. This will offer a truly breathtaking addition to Ellbee’s existing products and will enable them to compete in the high specification end of the market, yet still offer the outstanding value for which they are renowned.

“2008 promises to be an exciting year for Ellbee. We have a solid position in the market place as a quality, great value manufacturer and with the introduction of the new product ranges and increased investment in sales and marketing activity, we will continue to build on our success”.
