It is a little over a fortnight since we last sent out a newsletter detailing how we were actively and continuously monitoring this developing situation. As events have continued to unfold, we thought it was right to let you know about some of the measures we are taking to manage our business through these uncertain times:
The following practices are in place:
– Anyone with the symptoms of a cough and high temperature, or in the same household as someone displaying these symptoms are asked to self-isolate for 14 days from immediate effect.
– All but essential travel limited/cancelled. This includes taking our Regional Sales Managers off the road and redeploying them to provide support in business critical departments.
– Restricting gatherings of large groups of colleagues and curtailing movement between departments.
– Routine deep cleans of communal eating areas and facilities.
– Equipping personnel to work from home where practicable, thus reducing the number of people in our offices.
– Cleaning routines in place in all departments and cleaning stations available at key entrances to the company.
– High Speed IT connections throughout the business linking everyone remotely any time of the day.
These changes will not affect the day to day running of the business, all personnel and departments are contactable either by telephone or email, and our goal is to ensure business continuity. These are unprecedented circumstances, but we aim to manage our production schedule accordingly. So far, production is continuing as normal, despite unprecedented levels of demand. The Directors review the situation on a day by day basis, and any updates will continue to be communicated via our website/e-newsletter.
We thank you for your continued support and our thoughts go out to everyone at this very difficult time.

As a Funeral Directors who strives to offer the very best quality products available, we chose to use Atkinson’s Reflections range when it comes to picture coffins. Incorporating personal memories of the deceased that Jamie and the Reflections team have designed specifically for that individual family.
- Daniel from D.B.DevallsJust to let you know how elegant the Walnut Tree Oval coffin looked this morning - it caught everyone's eye, plenty of comments and none of the pallbearers had seen one like it. It really did look smart. The book for the name details is beautiful, really impressive.
- White Rose Modern FuneralsJust want to say a massive thank you to you & your team for this coffin, we along with the Humanist celebrant, crematorium staff, family and friends thought it was absolutely brilliant, on route to the crematorium there were people on the street taking photos of the coffin and EVERYONE had a big stupid smile on their faces.
- McKenzie and Millar - FuneralcareEveryone commented on how unusual the coffin was. Usually people are too scared to go up to the coffin at a funeral, but everyone went up to see and spent time looking at the photos that were displayed on the coffin. It made is so much easier to be close to dad
- Diane (on behalf of Poetic Endings Funeral Directors)Mum loved the outdoors and nature. She was very environmentally conscious. When we looked at your Eco friendly coffins we knew we’d be able to find something perfect for mum. It made such a sad time a little easier as we know she would have loved it.
- Mr & Mrs SingletonI loved the design on the picture coffin, it really captured my mother’s hobbies. She loved bowls, and to have the bowling green on was a wonderful way to say goodbye.
- Janice DohertyWe wanted to say goodbye to our sister Helen, but in something that was more than just ‘a box’. The different choices that were available in all styles was fascinating. We chose a beautiful American-style Casket and also got a separate keepsake in her memory.
