PfH Materials Launch Seminar

PfH was pleased to host the successful Materials launch seminar, at London’s Lion Court Conference Centre on the 7th July 2010.

PfH Members joined us on the day to find out the benefits this new EU Compliant Materials Framework is set to offer, including improved coverage through key national suppliers, whilst still providing the option to continue supporting local SMEs.
