Boasting a range of products from shower enclosures and decorative radiators to bathroom furniture and plumbing and heating distribution, the new suppliers look set to support the Plumbing, Heating and Showrooms Category Management Team (CMT) as Partners grow their offer in 2020.
The leading supplier of garden pottery in the UK and Ireland Apta is joining the Civils and Landscaping CMT, while Milwaukee brings over 90 years of experience to supply power tools and accessories to the Tools and Workwear CMT.
The General Building CMT is also growing, with the addition of four new suppliers including independent cavity closers manufacturer ARC Building Solutions Ltd and distributor of construction chemicals Resapol. Also joining the team is Soudal, Europe’s leading distributor of sealants and adhesives and Visqueen Building Products, the market leader in the manufacture of damp-proofing systems.

Marble Building Products Ltd, suppliers of kitchen worktops completes the new additions to the Decorating, Hardware and Kitchen CMT.
Managing director at NBG, Nick Oates, said: “16 new Suppliers are joining NBG this year which is double the amount that we welcomed last year.
