“The whole process has been straight forward and it’s been a pleasure to work with the bimstore team” Sarah Baker, Marketing Communications Manager

As innovative leaders, it made total sense for Stelrad to utilise BIM and so in anticipation of the Government’s Construction Strategy deadline of 2016, they embarked on a journey of researching and meeting with potential suppliers of BIM technology, eventually choosing bimstore due to a combination of factors which included reputation, knowledge and experience. Stelrad has created and developed a number of products with bimstore since 2013, initially investing in several core ranges, starting with their best selling and most popular products. Over the following years they have continued to invest heavily; extending their BIM range as new products have been brought to market, thus enabling them to stay ahead of the game and ensuring sure their products are ready to be specified by their customers.

“We decided to choose bimstore because of their reputation, knowledge and experience, as well as a clear vision for the future.” Sarah Baker, Marketing Communications Manager

As a result of their BIM activity, specifying radiators has never been easier and feedback from their customers has been positive. Stelrad feel that adopting BIM has been a great move for them as a business and the experience and expertise of bimstore in helping to create components quickly and accurately made the whole process simple and pain-free!
