Burlington are first natural stone company to join BCFA
Cumbria-based Burlington Stone have become the first natural stone company to join the British Contract Furnishing Association (BCFA).
Membership means the BCFA will now help promote the Britishness of Burlington Stone – quarried from the Lake District – and the depth and diversity of the company’s product range to those involved in the UK contract furnishing market.
The BCFA aim to encourage and maintain levels of excellence in design, innovation, product quality and customer service.
Commenting on Burlington Stone’s decision to join the BCFA, Sales & Marketing Director Nick Williams says: “We believe our stone is the best in the world, both technically and aesthetically, so with the BCFA standing as the business association dedicated to supporting the UK contract furnishing market, the link up was an obvious one.
“We value the role they play in helping provide a vital marketing advantage to industry sector leading companies such as Burlington Stone.
“Indeed, we are already enjoying tapping into the support services the BCFA provides, which we are confident will result in Burlington Stone securing increased specification of both its interior and exterior stone product range within hotels, restaurants, offices, schools & universities, hospitals, care homes, cruise ships, outdoor spaces and sporting & leisure sectors. BCFA Managing Director Colin Watson says: “We’re delighted to have Burlington Stone as a member of the BCFA. Being a quintessential British company with a strong heritage, and having access to what is one of the finest sources of stone available in the world, they produce a stunning range of interior and exterior natural stone products that are perfectly aligned to what the contract furnishing market is looking for.
“We are confident that, through their membership, Burlington Stone will become more widely recognised across all of the industry sectors that we support.”
