Athena Surfaces partners with Avant Homes

Athena Surfaces has become the sole supplier of quartz worksurfaces for Avant Homes.

This new partnership reflects a great period of success for Athena, which already supplies surfaces for some of the UK’s largest and most recognised homebuilders, including Persimmon Homes, Taylor Wimpey and Barratt Homes.

Avant Homes is a fast-growing company – it has just announced the creation of its latest operating region, in the West Midlands –  and with its supply from Athena Surfaces is looking forward to offering homebuyers an excellent choice of worksurfaces to help complete their new kitchen.

Athena Surfaces will supply Avant Homes with its own range of Forza worksurfaces. The Forza range has been developed specifically to deliver cost savings while maintaining the outstanding quality that customers expect from a quartz worksurface.

Athena identified a gap in the market for an affordable quartz surface material that would enable savings to be passed to their customers. In creating the exclusive Forza range, the company has removed a step from the supply chain and can offer housebuilders a more reliable service. Forza Quartz has the same benefits as other quartz products on the market, at a smaller price point, and has been designed based on Athena’s experience of the most appealing choices for worksurfaces.

By partnering with Avant Homes as its sole supplier, Athena Surfaces looks forward to helping supply thousands more new homes with high-quality quartz worksurfaces.

Martin Sanwell, group procurement director for Avant Homes, commented: “Our direct partnership with Athena and the specification of their Forza range of worksurfaces has allowed us to improve our end-to-end process whilst maintaining the high quality of products that our customers expect. The availability of materials is critical for us and the fact that Athena guarantees stock of their Forza range is a key factor.”

Adam Miles, managing director at Athena Surfaces, said: “We’re thrilled by the new partnership between Athena and Avant. We know that housebuilders want to provide the very best quality product to the homebuyer, with the least hassle. By launching Forza and bringing our supply chain in-house, we can provide Avant Home and other housebuilders like them with a much more reliable service. Their projects won’t be delayed by supply chain problems and their customers won’t be disappointed.”
