Trade Agreement
The UK and European Union have agreed a Brexit trade agreement, but even though there are no tariffs or duties there are import and export customs clearance fees now and in the future.
Brexit does not facilitate trade with the UK and hauliers say Cabinet Office ministers ignored warnings of the problems that have arisen. Despite the post-Brexit difficulties, we are open for business, continue to have a distribution relationship with our French manufacturers.
Faced with uncertainties of Brexit, our supplier is not refusing to manufacturer Inno-Therm®; for the UK market, yet no longer will take on the logistics of shipping the insulation to UK. As a result, we are now having to arrange haulage from Ex-works in northern France to UK. We are gradually building a new haulage network to bring the product to the UK market. We will update our website accordingly and notify customers, with focus on orders that are being processed.
Inno-Therm® is now also supplied through Unity Lime based in UK and agent of Soprema. Sold in agreement under the Inno-Therm® brand as Inno-Therm®/Pavatextil. Inno-Therm®/Métisse® and are the same insulation.
