Build Interior Design Awards 2017 to Preformed Markings

For the Build Interior Design Awards 2017 Magazine, Andrew Price from Preformed Markings explains about the company, our way of work and the given project of colourful crossing in Southwark.

Preformed Markings Ltd was established in 1998, as part of a surfacing company, Allmac. In 2006, Preformed Markings Ltd became a member of the Geveko Markings Group, the development of the line marking business provided a unique opportunity to provide clients with bespoke, tailored surface marking solutions, in a wide range of colours.

Andrew talks us through the firm’s process and how every member of the team strives to ensure that all clients receive the very highest standard of service throughout the process. “In order to provide our clients with the very best service, our aim is to fully understand the project and to try and perceive what the clients ‘dream’ is.

This was the case when we collaborated with Better Bankside and Transport for London, on a project designed by Camille Walala, for the crossing point in Southwark. Usually our projects are placed on surfaces that are either trafficked by pedestrians or vehicles, and in some cases both. During consultation with the client, we need to understand the expectation of the client, in terms of what they expect the material to achieve. It is only at this point, can we decide whether our products could be used in this unique way, or whether we have to look at a combination of solutions, to support the end result.

“What truly sets our firm apart is that our range of products are completel  flexible, and can be offered individually or in combination with other ‘family’ groups of products. We promote, via direct marketing and social media, to all of our existing, new and potential clients, new ideas and new projects. On occasions, this leads to a new avenue of design within the client base. Equally, this also offers opportunities for product development, should a range of products, not quite fit the specification required.”

Moving forward the firm is keen to continue adapting and innovating this unique range of products to continue to meet the needs of its clients, as Andrew concludes. “Looking ahead, we will continue to explore new ideas with our clients, here in the UK, Ireland and the rest of the world. We are well established as the market leader in this field, however our feet are firmly planted on the ground.

“Ultimately we are here to support our clients, and we would like to think that our continued commitment to a successful outcome, provides the confidence for the client, in achieving their goals.”
