Lalizas UK opens new offices and warehouse
Greece-based safety marine products firm Lalizas has boosted its UK offering with new offices and a warehouse in the coastal town of Portsmouth.
With a product line ranging from lifejackets, liferafts, MOB devices, navigation lights and safety harnesses, the Piraeus origin firm will have an expanded range of products with its new facility, which also has a showroom (pictured).
The facility has an area of 1,500m2.
“As an integral part of the Lalizas Group, the UK Branch offers a comprehensive safety solution for commercial, leisure and military marine markets from the Lalizas lifesaving and firefighting equipment,” the firm says.
“Additionally, these offerings include products of premium manufacturers that are also part of the Lalizas Group, such as Arimar liferafts and inflatable boats, Nuova Rade plastic equipment for marine use, Ocean fenders, Max Power thrusters and Lofrans’ windlasses. In addition, Lalizas UK is the exclusive local distributor for ACR Electronics and Pains Wessex marine distress signals.”
“Lalizas UK has been an essential part of the Lalizas Group for years,” said Stavros Lalizas, founder & CEO of the Group. “The acquisition of this new state-of-the art facility underscores our long-term commitment to meeting the evolving needs of our esteemed UK clientele.”
The UK team has also been strengthened by the appointment of Philip Kleinot as country manager in February this year.
