Gearing up for panel transfer
24th October 2017

HURST PLASTICS is gearing up to work with former Phoenix Doors panel customers following last week’s announcement by Phoenix parent company Masco UK Window Group that it is to cease production of door panels read story.

Hurst Plastics, which manufactures more than 2,000 door panels a week at its dedicated factory in Hull, will take orders for former Phoenix Doors customers from 3 November.

Mark Atkinson, Hurst Sales Director said: “We know that the panel market is mature and declining, but sales of Hurst Plastics’ door panels have actually grown for the last four years, albeit modestly. This performance shows that there is still demand for door panels, despite the growing popularity of composite doors, and we intend to continue supporting door panels while that demand is still there.

“We are pleased to be chosen to support Masco with their ongoing panel supply. Our relationship with Phoenix has always been a healthy and respectful one and they have been, and continue to be, a worthy competitor. I’d sincerely like to wish all the best to Neil Peck, who founded Phoenix Door Panels and is retiring and to some of the team who are moving on to pastures new.”
