Stannah is moving into new markets; the company has recently been appointed UK distributor for Anlev - Hong Kong, leading manufacturers and worldwide exporters of escalators and moving walkways.

Stannah will supply, install, and maintain products all over the UK and in doing so join a family of worldwide distributors.

Stannah and Anlev share a remarkable synergy; both are wholly owned independent manufacturers and leaders in their specialist markets.

Stannah Group Director, Jon Stannah, comments on the new partnership: "We are delighted to be associated with Anlev and are particularly excited by the excellent compatibility of the two companies.

We are of a very similar size and structure to Anlev; we share common core values of product quality, safety and excellent customer service delivered by a highly trained and dedicated workforce.

Stannah have an established network of service branches all across the UK which means we already have the structure to encompass escalators and moving walkways smoothly into our portfolio and provide the highest level of service to all our customers.

Stannah have been servicing escalators and moving walkways for some time and, through recommendation from their clients, the new distributor agreement with Anlev has been reached.

The escalators and walkways are manufactured in China and shipped in sections to the UK, where they are completely assembled and tested.

They arrive on site either in large sections or sometimes in one piece.

Installation then takes a matter of days.

The market for moving walkways, in particular, is showing significant growth in the UK.

Retailers are maximising the space within their existing building and providing easy access for all their customers, including those with shopping trolleys.

Ir Otto Poon, Chairman of Anlev, comments: "Anlev are delighted to have established this new working relationship with Stannah and look forward to the two companies being the winning combination in the UK escalator and moving walkways market.
