It's been a route well-travelled between our HQ in Oldham and that of Blum UK in Milton Keynes.
That's because a team of our Area Sales Managers, Marketing Manager Kenika Gumbs and some of our customers spent two days at Blum HQ exploring the firm's innovative solutions, such as the new-to-the-UK MERIVOBOX and other soft-close drawers, SPACE STEP plinth systems, lift systems, pocket systems, and more.
And following hot on the heels of our visit there, Blum's Phillip Moyles, Northern Area Sales Executive, and Jacopo Sebastiani, Distribution Specialist, spent a morning in our Oldham trade counter showcasing MERIVOBOX and other products with live demonstrations.
MERIVOBOX is being hailed for its simplicity, functionality and modern Orion Grey aesthetics aligned to current kitchen trends, making it a go-to product for every kind of drawer and pull out.
It has a sleek square design, compatible with glass or metal sides and comes with integrated BLUMOTION, Blum's soft-close runner technology, as standard or with TIP-ON BLUMOTION (push-to-open with soft-close) or electrical SERVO-DRIVE for handleless applications as optional extras.
We've been proud trading partners with Blum throughout our 35-year history and cemented that long-standing association when we became an official brand partner - one of only four in the UK.
Its products are ever popular with our customers as this feedback to Shankar Das, our ASM for the North West of England and South Wales, illustrates: "Thank you for the day at Blum last week. It was really enjoyable and informative.
"It certainly puts into perspective what a company they are. We are going to be sitting down and producing a premier cabinet list, featuring exclusively Blum hinges and drawers."
Kenika, who joined in one of the days at Milton Keynes, says: "A huge thank you to Blum UK for their incredible hospitality and partnership during our BEC Experience collaboration - it was a fantastic two days, well run as you would expect from Blum and very engaging.
"We would also like to extend a big thank you to our valued customers who joined us on both days.
"And of course, everyone loved hearing about the inspiring Blum Bee Project supporting great causes through the sale of their own Blum bee honey."
The project is now in its third year after Blum installed 10 pollinator-friendly beehives in the garden of its Milton Keynes HQ as part of its wider sustainability initiatives.
Raj Tanna, Blum Warehouse Manager, says: "We all have a responsibility to take care of nature and the environment, and this is one of our contributions towards that goal."
Our extensive range of Blum products includes pull-out systems for kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, bedrooms and office spaces.
There's also a pre-assembled, made-to-measure drawer builder service, which gives customers the opportunity to order bespoke drawers (in widths from 250mm up to 1200mm), ready-assembled and delivered on-site.
Most Blum products are available off the shelf for next day delivery across the UK: you can discover more about our extensive Blum range here.
