A Year in the Life of an Award Winning Polymer Supplier
Time flies they say and it did for Hardie Polymers. Here they give a recap of their news from last year.
Rebranded Logo & New Polymer Website
Hardie Polymers were excited to kick off last year with a rebrand and launch of their new polymer website. They specialise in sourcing and distributing engineering and high performance polymers.
As their company grows they continue to embrace new technology. The new website was carefully constructed by web designers Inigo Media. They crafted the site so that Hardie Polymers can better communicate with and serve their customers.
Website rebrand
The website featured a fresh new dynamic logo to reflects the evolution of this polymer supplier.
You can read all about Hardie Polymers’ company history and their dedicated staff, and you can learn how easy it is to search for the exact grade of plastic you need. Visit the website.
The team – getting great polymer supplier deals for you
Hardies continued introducing their team and featured two of their staff last year. Their Sales Administrator, Linda Tonner and their new Sales Team Member, Robert Phair were featured.
They regularly invest in the knowledge and skills of their staff. With this in mind, also in their news last year was Bartosz completing a two day polymer training course on ‘Materials Appreciation’. This was run at the renowned Polymer Training & Innovation Centre at the City of Wolverhampton College.
