Founding Distributor
Programme

First authorised partners for the United Kingdom, Ireland and Australia.

We build boiling and chilled water taps for the kitchen in our own factory and we are appointing the first partners to sell, install and support them in their territory. Places are allocated by area and by application. This is not an open reseller list, and we would rather appoint one committed kitchen business per area than ten passive ones.

The proposition

A manufacturer behind the counter

Most kitchen water systems reach a British showroom through an importer, a brand owner and a distributor. Every layer adds margin, and every layer adds a day to the answer when a fitter is standing in a kitchen with a question. Our partners deal with the factory that tooled the part, and keep the margin those layers used to take.

What a founding partner receives

Six things, stated plainly

  1. 01

    Territory allocation

    A defined trading area is held for you while the programme runs and is agreed in writing. We do not appoint two partners into the same kitchen market and then let them fight over the same showroom customer.

  2. 02

    Display and sample support

    Working display units for your kitchen showroom, plus the physical finish samples buyers want to touch before they specify. A boiling and chilled kitchen tap sells from the worktop, not from a brochure.

  3. 03

    Product and installation training

    Delivered to your sales floor and to your fitting teams, with the full drawing set. Your fitters learn the under-counter layout, the filter service access and the commissioning sequence before the first kitchen job.

  4. 04

    Joint marketing assets

    Photography, specification sheets, finish boards and display material produced with you and carrying your own showroom identity where you want it.

  5. 05

    End-customer enquiries routed to you

    Kitchen enquiries that reach us from your territory are passed straight across. We do not sell direct to households, so a homeowner lead is only worth anything to us once it is in your hands.

  6. 06

    Direct engineering contact

    Specification questions are answered by the people who drew the part. No agent layer, no re-translation, no waiting for a trading company to ask the factory on your behalf.

What we deliberately do not publish: partner pricing, discount bands, order quantities and delivery schedules. Those are confirmed in writing per model and per order, once we both know which configuration your kitchen customers actually buy.

Who we are looking for

Four kinds of kitchen business

The common thread is a real presence in kitchens — a worktop we can put a working tap on, or fitters who open a sink cabinet every week. Everything else we can teach.

We have no installation or after-sales network of our own overseas. That work belongs to our partners, which is exactly why the territory is worth holding.

How applying works

Four steps,
all by email

We publish no phone number, because we cannot staff a line that answers in your working hours and a number nobody answers is worse than none. We reply by email, Monday to Friday.

Manufacturing under your own brand instead
  1. 01

    Apply

    Send the form below. Company, territory and what you already sell into kitchens is enough to start — no accounts or forecasts at this stage.

  2. 02

    Territory check

    We check the territory against applications already in hand and reply by email either way, so you are never left guessing.

  3. 03

    Technical call and drawings

    A working session on the range, the under-counter layout and the certification position model by model. You receive the drawing set.

  4. 04

    Terms in writing

    Commercial terms are confirmed in writing per model and per order. Nothing is agreed on a phone call, because there is nothing to misremember later.

Application

Apply for a territory

Five fields. Tell us who you are and which kitchen market you cover, and we will tell you whether the territory is open.

Or write to [email protected]. We reply by email, Monday to Friday. Commercial terms are confirmed in writing per model and per order. No retail pricing is published on this site.
