Framework Accordion Title

  • The Customer is not obliged to place orders against project proposals and quotations. All site visits, project proposals, quotations and CAD drawings must be provided free of charge by the successful supplier if required.
  • In order to offer customers a more comprehensive solution, the product range has been revised and expanded to improve the scope of the framework including library counters, IT stations, bespoke seating, shelves, and other furnishing solutions.
