Bedding and upholstery component supplier Handy has agreed to buy the non-zip related assets and sales of fellow supplier Aero Zip.
This includes elastic webbing, hook & loop, piping cord & flanged edge roll, elastic, narrow woven polyester tapes, non-woven fabrics and valance board. Will Evans, Aero Zip founder is planning to retire, 40 years after founding the company.
‘We are very excited to absorb the Aero Zip product range into Handy. The business is well known for its high-quality components which will fit perfectly amongst our diverse range of products. We are also looking forward to building new relationships with Aero Zip’s existing customer base and would like to re-assure them that this will be a smooth transition period. We are proud to be able to offer a one-stop shop for our customers, creating unique partnerships which help improve production processes, cut costs and ultimately lead to high-quality products for the end consumer,’ says Nick Harland-Smith, Handy md.
