About Us
Anglian Building Products (ABP) was first established over 30 years ago and are specialists in providing insulation solutions to both the business-to-business and public sector throughout England, Scotland and Wales.
When the Contracts Division was originally formed it focused principally on large noise insulation projects and window replacement projects for MOD housing. The acquisition of New England Windows in 1992 accelerated the Divisions penetration of the Local Authority and Housing Association markets. ABP has throughout this time built excellent working relationships with direct clients, managing contractors and House Builders growing our market share.
We currently operate within the following sectors:
Our market leading position allows us to offer a locally based service combined with the huge economies of scale realised from our vertically integrated in-house supply chain - design, project management, resident consultation, survey, supply, installation, recycling and maintenance.
Anglian Building Products is the business to business division of Anglian Windows Limited. The company was established in 1966 and has an annual turnover of approximately £200m. Anglian employs approximately 2500 people throughout the UK. The other divisions of Anglian Windows are:
- Anglian Home Improvements is renowned in the UK as the number one supplier of high quality home improvements to the retail sector.
