The LHC operates one of the largest building component procurement programmes in the UK. This service is available, free of charge, throughout the country for the benefit of specifiers in local authorities, housing associations and other public bodies.

As the result of a rigorous competitive tender evaluation in accordance with the European Public Procurement Directive, Moores have again been appointed by the LHC as a supplier of kitchen furniture. Through a close working partnership between Moores and the LHC, we have developed a range of kitchen furniture with unsurpassed life expectancy, durability and specification.

How the LHC kitchen can reduce long term maintenance costs:

• Designed specifically for the social housing environment
  
  
• Improved Moisture Resistance chipboard in carcases and worktops
  
  
• All edges sealed against water damage
  
  
• Full repairability in-situ, on all units
  
  
• HAPM life assessment of 30 years
  
  
• Strength tested for heavy domestic use
  
  
• Interchangeable fronts
  
  
• Superior materials specification
  
  
• Increased value for money
  
  
• Reduced long term maintenance costs.

How the LHC helps the specifier:

• Technical expertise and in-depth knowledge of the building components required for the heavy domestic usage experienced in tenanted accommodation
  
  
• Products and services are researched in depth and proven in practice, resulting in high product performance
  
  
• LHC carefully examines the companies it appoints, as well as their products and services. Moores' manufacturing facilities and operating procedures are assessed by the British Standards Institution and approved to meet BS EN ISO 9002: 1994 Quality Assurance Standard
