Local glass partner

Quickslide has partnered with local blinds supplier Morley Glass in a bid to further reduce lead times.

“Our new relationship with Morley Glass began back in December to ensure that we were ready to hit the ground running with orders in January,” managing director Ben Weber said.

“When it comes to integral blinds, our customers are increasingly requesting wider variation in both colour and operating systems. We have taken on two of Morley’s core manual control products: the ‘C System’, which features a rotational cord; and a cordless magnetic slider system, known as the ‘SV System’.

“Each of these are available in traditional, timeless colours including white, creams and greys, but for homeowners wanting to make more of a statement through their windows, the choice of bright primary colours provide a great alternative.”

With less than ten miles between the two factory sites the move guarantees Quickslide a reduction in its carbon footprint, an aim that Ben intends to fulfil across the company’s entire supply chain.

“Climate activism is so very poignant right now, and it is absolutely everyone’s responsibility to confront environmentally threatening issues,” he said. “The proximity of Morley’s premises to us means that we can support the wider cause to be eco-friendly by having vehicles on the road for less time, and making more efficient journeys.”
