Crean Mosaics celebrate Quality Recognition

February 2, 2011

An international manufacturer and supplier of building products has awarded a top accolade for quality of service to local company Crean Mosaics, based in Charlestown.

The announcement was made at an event on February 16th in Portlaoise, County Laois. Tim Walker, Global Walls Development Manager of the multi-national wall cladding and safety flooring company Altro presented a certificate appointing the company as a Premier Installer of Altro WhiterockTM hygienic wall cladding. Premier Installer status recognises the company’s high levels of skill, technical expertise and quality of service.

Altro’s international quality standard reflects the levels of training undertaken by the company in the selection and fitting of Altro products. It also conveys to customers that levels of quality are monitored and audited on a regular basis to ensure that the very highest standards are maintained.

The effective installation of wall cladding continues to grow in importance. In sites such as hospitals and food preparation areas, for example, fitting hygienic wall cladding correctly is a valuable line of defence in disease prevention. As a result, Premier Installer status is not given lightly.

Tim Walker, said, “Our Altro Whiterock Premier Installer Charter defines the standards that a contractor will provide for the customer. It covers professional assistance to clients, levels of workmanship, and observance of current legislation and best practice.

“For the contractor, Premier Installer status involves an on-going commitment to training and continuous improvement. For the customer, an Altro Whiterock system, fitted by an Altro Whiterock Premier Installer, means peace of mind for years to come.”

The other important links in the supply chain are Altro’s distributors. BHT Group/Brooks Contract Flooring and Laydex Ltd play a key role in stocking Altro products and generating projects for Premier Installers in the Irish Republic.
