Improved Treatment for Handrails & Bottom Rails

Simon Buckley - Saturday, October 01, 2011

All our exterior handrail profiles are now stocked in H3.2.  The H3.2 treated product is easy to identify as it has the pale green 'tanalised' look.  In addition to our wide range of stock handrail profiles, we can also machine custom profiles to your specification.  Ask our sales team for more information.
