5 minutes with… Scott Singleton

Looking back on how the business looked 12 months ago to how it looks now has been an exercise we have done regularly at Cristex to reflect on decisions we have made. We have seen a significant change to how our engagements with clients, embracing online meetings and remote working has forced us to adapt to a new way of operating as a business and with this ability to adapt to situations around us we have been able to maintain an effective and efficient way of operating. Looking specifically to the operations of the business, Cristex have invested heavily in the cutting and kitting department, we have started offering the service for cutting all types of composite reinforcements for our existing and new clients. Over the past 12 months, this service gained real traction and proven to be a complementary and valuable addition to the distribution side of the business. We have been able to improve material efficiency, reducing waste generated during our clients manufacturing processes. Allowing a greater level of consistency to be achieved and maintained whilst becoming a more important and valuable part of our clients’ supply chain. All these points have been very positive for us to see at Cristex and this operation has become a very important part of the vision at Cristex as we move forward.
