Sutcliffe Play signs deal to become UK distributor for Lappset Group
Sutcliffe Play has signed a strategic partnership with Lappset Group to become the UK distributor for the Finnish playground specialist. A manufacturer and designer of playgrounds, sports, parks, and outdoor fitness equipment, Lappset was founded in 1970 and is headquartered in Rovaniemi, Finland.
Sutcliffe Play’s range focuses on playful metal equipment ranges, while Lappset’s porfolio focuses on predominantly timber-made products, designed with a keen emphasis on Nordic design and sustainability.
According to Sutcliffe, by combining the two distinct offerings, the partnership will give Sutcliffe Play a “commanding position” on the UK play marketplace. Andrew Love, Sutcliffe Play Director of Sales and Marketing, said: “We’re thrilled to finally reveal our collaboration with Lappset to the world, which will allow us to offer this exciting range of sustainable Nordic timber-based products to our customers alongside our own new metal-based product ranges currently being launched.”
Simone Ryser, Director of Channel Partner Sales at Lappset Group Ltd, added: “Sutcliffe Play’s deep understanding of the market, especially within the tendering process, their great reputation and shared commitment to quality, innovation and customer service make them an ideal partner for Lappset. Together, we look forward to creating inspiring play and activity spaces that benefit communities across the UK.”
