This includes IKO Polymeric for the supply of Spectraplan TPE and Armourplan PVC single ply membranes. IKO Plc will supply its range of bituminous roofing systems Permatec hot melt, Permaphalt mastic asphalt, IKO Polimar cold applied liquids.
Willmott Dixon is a £1billion turnover business covering commercial, public sector construction, housebuilding and development, interior fit-outs, repair & maintenance work and even energy services. “To drive predictability in the delivery of our product IKO is our ‘first choice’ on all projects whenever we are in control of the project design and specification,” explains Tim Carey of Willmott Dixon.
“This is a significant agreement for both IKO Group and Willmott Dixon,” comments Anthony Carlyle of IKO Polymeric. “We’ve worked with Willmott Dixon for many years now and developed a unique online ‘hub’ that includes a product system selector and matches IKO Business Managers with projects geographically. We help with specifications, surveys, training and installation, depending on what the project needs. It’s a very successful relationship for both parties and this mandated supplier agreement takes our partnership to the next level, with end-clients being the ultimate beneficiaries.”
Both IKO UK Group and Willmott Dixon focus on the environment. Since 2012, Willmott Dixon has been carbon neutral. In 2014 it received a Queen’s Award for Enterprise in Sustainable Development and was recently awarded Construction News’ ‘Sustainable Constructor of the Year’ for 2016, while IKO has achieved the ISO 14001 environmental management standard and BES 6001 for responsible sourcing of construction products for all three of its UK plants.
