eCommerce innovations

Hi everyone,

We started the year with challenges owing to weather events across the upper North Island impacting our communities. Despite this our industry remained resilient and provided support to those affected.

At Laminex, we’re constantly striving to improve with updated products, new features and innovation tailored towards meeting your specific needs. Our eCommerce platform continues to grow from strength to strength and will remain a strong focus for our team. eCommerce provides real time information so you can view product delivery times based on stock availability and updates for order status. Last year we introduced ‘Related Products’ functionality to help you find board and matching edgetape easily. There are more exciting updates to come – so watch this space!@ If you’d like to sign up for online ordering visit Laminex.co.nz/ecommerce-registration

We’re thrilled to see our latest innovation introduced last year – the Melteca Organic Finish – has been well received by the market. Offering a realistic timber look, the organic Finish emulates the natural movement of timber. If you haven’t seen the product yet, you can order a sample via sample@laminex.co.nz or through the Laminex website.

This year we recognise a significant forty year milestone at our Laminex Hamilton manufacturing site with Melteca production commencing back in 1983. Bob Nordgren speaks with David Miles, our Hamilton Plant Manager about the milestone and the changes through the years. You can read about it on page 18. We genuinely appreciate all our customers who have supported us to achieve this milestone.

The Master Joiners Conference will be here in a few months, I’m looking forward to catching up with those that attend. Thank you for working with us as a trusted business partner, we wish you every success for the year ahead.
