We’re moving on…. And we’d love you to come with us!
Sunvic Controls is no stranger to the domestic heating market. In fact the company has been serving the industry for over 60 years and is probably best known for the TLX room thermostats and motorised valves which were fitted into the lion’s share of new-build during the 1970s and 80s.
As one of the industry’s main players during this era, Sunvic went from strength to strength, developing a brand synonymous with high performance and high quality, often leading the way for industry standard.
Why change?
There is always a danger of complacency within any successful company. At Sunvic we want to avoid that trap and move forward with change rather than looking back at glory days.
People’s needs and expectations change - the way a product is installed changes, market conditions change - lets face it, even the climate changes! As a company we feel responsible for taking these current issues and using technological advancements to create the next generation of innovative products. We do this by working with users and installers to understand new building regulations and climate issues and designing products that are easy to install and energy efficient.
It looks different, it sounds different but what has really changed for Sunvic?
New ownership status and investment means Sunvic’s future is firmly in our own hands. A new-look identity is a visible sign that the future is bright and fresh ideas are emerging.
Investment in new products and solutions, and a new management team of professionals from a range of industries brings greater power to innovate.
An increased field presence and improved customer service levels are firmly in place to make sure we keep close to our customers - a number one priority for us today.
Another positive change is increased flexibility. Our willingness to work with customers, finding solutions to specific problems has been a great success so far and we recognise the need for a closer relationship with the people who specify, use and install our product. In other words – you!
What can we do for you?
Our considerable expertise is being applied to real, modern day challenges. From these experiences a new range of next generation product will be introduced to the market.
We want to make it easier to select the right product for the right application and will make this evident in our new style catalogue and future website development.
Dedicated customer service personnel are in place so you can communicate with us at every stage, from choosing the right product through to any after sales care necessary.
Most importantly, we want to bring a new level of flexibility to the industry, working in partnership to develop bespoke products and services to make you more successful.
