VCi Edge Ahead with MFC Door Production
VCi have seen a marked upturn in demand for PVC edged kitchen cabinet doors of late.

Changes in marketplace demand, especially in the contracts market - apartments/new builds, social housing refits etc - has seen a resurgence in the demand for MFC doors. As Director Pauline Vernon commented: "There have been significant changes in marketplace styles and trends - modern builds are demanding clean lines and mix plain colours with patterns and timber effects".

The results are that VCi have produced more of the 2mm PVC edged MFC doors over the past 12 months then ever before.

Pauline continued: "VCi have been an integral part in the design shift - new designs, with horizontal grains, ‘plains’ with attractive accessories and new decors and trims are all being heavily promoted at the moment".

VCi are one of the very few established, true, ‘panel manufacturers’ in the UK and as Pauline said: "It is our sole business - we produce panels. We are not board suppliers or distributors offering an add-on service - we just produce panels, and we have to be good at it".

The 58,000sq ft manufacturing plant houses more than £2million worth of specialist machinery and integrated design production and order processing systems. And with a 45 strong manufacturing workforce under the watchful eye of works manager Paul Douglas standards have to be maintained. Paul said: "We are our own worst critics and it is instilled in everyone never to be complacent and always look for ways to improve".
