Clayton Glass can today announce that we have signed a 5-year transport deal with Nottinghamshire-based transport and logistics firm The Silver X Group, with the hopes that their logistical expertise will boost our delivery capabilities out of our Huthwaite site.

The Silver X Group was established back in 2013, with a mission to combine industry-leading customer services and support, with innovative, intelligence-led logistics and fulfilment solutions.

Since then, they have become renowned for their services all over the UK and Europe, now boasting 130,000 square feet of warehousing space, and a hugely versatile arsenal of vehicles. All whilst maintaining the company’s core values of dedicated service and support – something we value greatly here at Clayton Glass.

Embodying these values is Silver X Managing Director Gavin Burgess, who had the following to say on the new logistics deal: “Silver X have been tasked with providing a logistics solution that will provide exceptional customer service to Clayton’s customers.”

“At the same time, we’ll be looking to supply Clayton with an enhanced supplier-client relationship that reports accurate daily information, up-to-date tracking, and allows the whole process to be managed by both the supplier and the customer.”

I’m personally really excited, I’ve been really engaged with the Clayton team so it’s an exciting pairing.

Sharing Gavin’s enthusiasm for the new logistics deal is Clayton Glass’ Group Procurement and IT Manager, Tom Moore. Tom had this to say: “The first thing that attracted us to working with Silver X was their approach to logistics.”

“We have very similar ideas when it comes priorities, with customer support, maintaining core values and a constant betterment of service all being things that we both strive for.”

“On top of this, we are excited to see their modern, data-driven approach vs traditional hauliers. With real time-tracking data, and our self-service app glassTRACK, giving live and free access to order dates and PODs, it’s a formidable customer offering.”

Jonathan Bryan, Group Transport Manager and Site Manager, has plenty of experience in logistics. Jonathan weighed in with the following:

“From a logistical standpoint, Silver X appear to be elite in their field. I very much look forward to our future relationship!”

This partnership represents another leap forward in our ability to offer what we believe is the best service in our industry.
