Stephen Maher (Procurement Officer Shadforth)

TRN Group have held a working relationship with RCPA for over 8.5 years now & the most appreciated aspects of our dealings with them has been prompt responses to pricing requests and as-proposed delivery schedules met all via good old-fashion personal service from many a long serving staff.

These attributes on each project they are engaged in have resulted in them becoming our top supplier of FRC & SRC Pipe. The upheaval of the recent industry pipe shortage was very challenging, however the RCPA production and sales team assisted in every instance to meet all targets hence ensuring projects were delivered on time.
