In terms of recent years for the company, Arrow Valves has gone from strength to strength gaining successful sales each year. “Arrow Valves has experienced a period of exceptional sales success, but as many businesses the pandemic has caused a pattern of slower sales due to the closure of building sites for a period and general unrest in the industry. We have continued to work and support one another during the challenge and were pleased to be able to quickly turnaround orders to supply products for the Nightingale Hospitals.”
Indeed, with the on-going global pandemic of COVID-19 affecting all businesses and industries, Arrow Valves has also seen the effects on its industry however the company strives to maintain a productive outlook and is continuing to develop its products and services during these uncertain times. “The pandemic persists as does industry unrest, but Arrow Valves continues to look to the future, developing products to assist compliance with the Water Regulations. Our Research and Development team keep well-informed of technological advances and incorporate these into design to facilitate product automation, remote monitoring and multiple site management. “The Directors continued, “We are expanding after sales support with our dedicated servicing department; attending site to maximise product longevity, especially in premises which may have closed for long periods due to lockdown.”
In terms of the company’s future plans, Arrow Valves told us that the company has many things lined up for the future, stating that, “To mark 20 years in business we have recently undergone a rebrand with a new look and logo. We are in the process of launching a new website with enhanced content such as educational videos, BIM drawings and technical literature to aid product selection and specification.”
