Silverhook trades from its own freehold site, meaning it pays no rent (it does not have a mortgage on the site either).

Silverhook is not a PLC so no dividends have to be paid to keep shareholders happy. In fact no dividends or wages have been paid to the directors of Silverhook, since the company was formed in 1997. All profits have been ploughed back into the Company for the benefit of the customers and the long term prosperity of the company.

All the most recent additions to the tank farm have been made as a result of site clearances (Industrial sites cleared for redevelopment) and the latest steel tanks cost the company nothing - just the cost of a lorry to transport them to the site!

The large storage capacity Silverhook enjoys enables economies of scale to be obtained by "bulk" purchasing chemicals.

The company has adopted a low expense regime, all equipment from filling machines to fork lift trucks being owned by the company.

Being a relatively new company Silverhook is not burdened by pension liabilities of Directors and employees who have left the company many years before.

Silverhook uses technology to assist in its advertising campaigns making use of the internet and other electronic forms of advertising it does not embark on indulgent and expensive advertising campaigns which push the price of the products to excessively high levels.

Promotional material is designed and printed in-house to reduce costs and ensure advertising leaflets are up to date.

Silverhook looks forward to welcoming you as a valued customer.
