The year ahead will also see the business focus on strengthening existing ranges, adapting products to suit changing needs and introducing supporting accessories to further enhance the potential of these ranges. Univolt will also begin to modify the profi le of some of its core products in a move that refl ects a demand for a changing design aesthetic.
2023 saw considerable changes within the team including the senior appointment of industry expert Neil Crook, and we are set to make further announcements in the year ahead. Building the team and making the right appointments using a considered and long term view is critical as Univolt grows.

Environmental focus
Sustainability is an issue that remains on everyone’s lips as we all explore ways in which to reduce our carbon footprint and minimise the eff ect our operation has on the environment. We have set ourselves strong targets internally as a business, and are also part of national initiatives such as Ecovadis and Sedex that help
us benchmark our eff orts and strive for continual improvement. In the UK, we are currently piloting the concept of utilising paper packaging for all products and are working to develop this idea further in the future.
We pride ourselves on our agile approach in terms of customer service, processing and products. We are able to develop bespoke products internally, adapting to a specifi c need focusing on design, colour, profi le etc. Our pre- assembled product off ering is gathering pace and we are working with customers who want to see the cable management element form part of that wider approach.
Since our inception in the UK some years ago, we have built a brilliant business, forging excellent relationships and supplying quality products as part of our growing range. We cannot undervalue the role that the wholesaler plays in our business model. We remain committed to the wholesaler and value each and every one of those businesses, including the independents as well as the national chains. Collaboration and partnership with the wholesaler sector will always be a critical component within our business. 2023 was a huge year for the UK arm of the business. We’ve seen so much growth and change – it’s been quite phenomenal. For the year ahead, we are now looking to strengthen our team and utilise the considerable resources we have in place to take the business to the next level.
