Kelkay has big plans for Borderstone

Following the acquisition of Borderstone from Aggregate Industries at the end of November, Kelkay is now focusing on the key product areas moving forward.

This purchase further enhances Kelkay’s already extensive range of products by bringing additional pre-cast favourites into its range, along with a substantial Natural Stone offering - an area where Borderstone is renowned for being the industry leader.

The key line is the best-selling range of natural paving which includes sandstone in four colours and slate in two colours. All natural paving is available in 5.5m2 and 10.2m2 patio kits with a larger additional size of a 15.3m2 patio kit in the sandstone range. There is also a range of landscaping features including stepping stones, edgings and dollies to complement Kelkay’s already strong collection of pre-cast stone products.

Supported with Borderstone branded point-of-sale, these new products are available to Kelkay customers from February, further developing a diverse cross section of products to satisfy all areas of the industry. Kelkay hopes to maintain the current Borderstone stockist base and build strong trading relationships with new customers.

In addition, a number of Borderstone branded products will be sold creating many buying opportunities in excess of £2 million at retail. This offer stock will give significantly improved margins across many everyday volume selling lines.

Antony Harker Managing Director of Kelkay comments: “We are delighted with the initial feedback we have received from our customers. We are looking forward to an exciting new era building the Borderstone brand and existing portfolio."
