About this company

Sure's inception was borne of the clear market requirement for a powder coating company that could offer both service and quality, at the right price. With an accumulation of over 25 years in the powder coating industry, the Directors chose to invest £2 million in purchasing the right facility in the East Yorkshire, together with state of the art equipment and technology. This location, which is close to the motorway network, allows us to offer regular transport nationwide, which in turn enables us to offer unrivalled turnaround times on orders, with a 24 hour facility if required. Due to the company's continued successes, a 2nd production line was installed in October 2009, now providing a multi line, highly flexible production facility, able to handle all shapes and sizes and lengths up to 8 metres. Sure aims to become a pioneer within the architectural industry by developing a successful environmental policy and an innovative workforce.
