Message From Mick Butler

Here at Bridgman, we are setting our focus on 2023, which marks our 19th year at the helm of the business. A business that started as IBC Ltd back in 1982 and before that was a section of an international PLC with over 100 years of history.

We are thankful for the exceptional team here at Bridgman; our team has the desire for the business to succeed and provide outstanding customer service.

We also thank our suppliers without whom we simply wouldn’t be able to achieve great levels of customer service.

We have a large number of loyal customers who have supported us up to and throughout 2022. We take this opportunity to thank them for their ongoing support and look forward to working with them in 2023 and beyond.

Our business, like any other, is not immune to the challenges that the cost of living & energy crisis causes, and this has meant a review of our energy use.

We have worked with industry specialists to develop several energy saving projects that will bear fruit in 2023. These projects should help reduce the impact of higher energy costs by reducing our overall usage.

We have retained our FSC, PEFC, Q Mark, ISO14001 & 9001 accreditation and are now striving towards our sustainability goal of reaching net zero.

Also, we celebrate two of our team members Tony Phillips and Val Ridgeway achieving 50 years’ service in 2022 which is an achievement that few are likely to repeat.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year.

Mick Butler
