Supporting our Customers ahead of Brexit 2021

Two years on and we seem to be facing the same challenges as we were with Brexit 2018. Uncertainty over import and export duties, and confusion regarding any delays due to additional customs paperwork and procedures.

MacLellan’s recognise the need to provide security of supply for its customers and have already put in place actions to mitigate any potential issues – see our Brexit Plan document in our downloads.

Stock Volumes Increased

Whilst we have no control over the outcome of many risk areas, we can address potential shortages of supply and to this end we have continued to increase stock holdings of core materials at our Wolverhampton distribution sites.

To put this in context we currently hold enough material to:

• Create a 1 Mtr wide path across the English Channel
• Cover 29 Olympic sized swimming pools
• Complete 6 laps of Silverstone F1 circuit
• Produce over 500,000 ASA 150 FF 100mm NB Gaskets
• Cover 9 Premier League Football pitches
• Reach the peaks of the 4 highest mountains
• Go from Wolverhampton to Birmingham 3 times
• Cover the same length as 1,200 Blue Whales laid end to end
• Produce over 1,500,000 metres of 25mm wide filler strip

And we have production volumes in hand, of more than 200 Tonnes of material at any one time.

Improving our Service

We constantly look to refine our stock profile to meet our customers current and future demands and, in this way, we can continue to provide a same day despatch and next day delivery to almost anywhere in the country.

We have developed new materials to meet the technical demands of end users and meet updated legislation.

We recruit and train our team to offer exceptional service and technical support across all our product range and are recognised as a valuable partner by many of our customers.
