A new trading partnership between Steico Limited and Sonae UK Limited covering the whole of Ireland has been agreed with immediate effect.
The partnership will see Sonae's Spanboard sales force teaming its own market leading chipboard flooring panels with the extensive Steicojoist and new Steicoultralam laminated veneer lumber (LVL) ranges aimed at specifiers and builders of residential, commercial and industrial buildings.
The result will see a focus on the supply of complete engineered floor systems comprising i-joists and flooring panels plus high strength LVL for main beams, rim boards lintels and other loadbearing requirements. Floor kits, cut to size, can be supplied direct to the distributor, timber frame manufacturer or to site.
Andy Moore, Managing Director of Steico Limited said: "We see this as a great opportunity for Steico to benefit from Sonae's strong presence in the market throughout Ireland. We also believe this initiative will open up the concept of complete engineered floor kits to a much wider audience and create many new opportunities for both companies."
Dave Chapman, Sonae’s UK Sales and Marketing Director said: "As Spanboard moves into a new phase and faces the challenges of the current economic climate, good partners are essential to grow and develop our business. We aim to offer our customers the complete package in all construction and decorative markets, and with Steico, we feel that we have made a huge step in offering a construction package, few can match."
