Our Green Credentials

All Simply Shutters products are made from totally recyclable materials. None of our waste material goes to landfill sites but instead goes for recycling to be made into many useful everyday items such as garden furniture, plastic buckets, car bumpers, CD cases and so on.

Polymers and most plastics are, in essence, oil derived so we endeavour to ensure that whenever possible, we deal only with those suppliers that have a policy of reducing harmful emissions and that take steps to promote an environmentally friendly practice in general. In this respect we believe that we have been successful.

For example our main supplier has almost zero harmful emissions in the manufacture of the components that we use to build the shutters.

Any monies that we receive for our recyclable waste is donated to charities (see our blog entry for sponsorship in the Great North

Run). We use the Rye Trading Company Ltd www.clryetradingltd.co.uk to dispose of all of our recyclable waste.

As a result of this policy you can be sure that when you buy any Simply Shutters synthetic wood or co-polymer product that it will benefit the environment in some way; the most obvious of which is to reduce the impact upon our planet from deforestation by reducing the demand for hardwoods.

All Ramin Hardwood shutters (that are available to purchase online) are obtained from FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) regulated sources and therefore proven and guaranteed to be from managed and renewable supplies and not from illegal logging.

It is Simply Shutters policy to support other small businesses in the immediate area so that our activities will benefit the local community.


Built in Suffolk with Pride.

With the exception of the Ramin Hardwood shutters, Simply Shutters manufactures almost all the shutters available on this website from its Suffolk premises.

Simply Shutters Ltd will sell directly to the Trade, Construction Industry, Retail Outlets and end user. We guarantee our prices to be the lowest because we manufacture on site. This cuts out layers of cost by means of reduced transport charges and other company’s profit margins so there is no compromise on the quality of the product. We believe that we are the only exterior shutter company of our type within the UK to do this.

We use various methods in the construction of the shutters that we build. If you purchase from us, depending on the product that you have selected, you will find that we have either used stainless steel screws, sonic welding or bonding or a combination of them all.

All Simply Shutters products are built to the highest standard and we won’t release an order until we are absolutely happy with it. We know that if we are happy you will be nothing short of delighted because we pride ourselves on our workmanship.

All of our polypropylene products are offered to retail customers / end users with the benefit of a 7 day no quibble money back guarantee and are supported with our lowest Price Promise. Should you discover that you could have purchased a product of a similar nature and quality elsewhere for less, within 30 days of purchase, then Simply Shutters Ltd will match the lower price and further reduce it by 10%. These offers exclude Trade clients who enjoy their own particular benefits.

Simply Shutters welcomes Trade enquiries who will benefit from particularly favourable terms and a very quick order turn round time. We know that going back to a job once you have left to start another can be costly and annoying for both you and your customer. We are able to dispatch the vast majority of Trade orders received within a maximum of 5 working days unless otherwise notified. No other company can you offer you the speedy dispatch times that we are able to offer on a regular basis. The challenge is there so why not put us to the test? Call us today on 01842 814260.

Any information provided by you will not be sold on to third parties and will be kept safe and secure. We value your privacy (see Privacy Statement) as if it were our own.


Simply Shutters Sponsors Great North Run.

Simply shutters assisted with sponsorship for a team entry in the 2008 Great North Run that was held earlier this year. The 2008 Bupa Great North Run took place on Sunday 4th October and with approximately 52,000 runners taking part.
The Bupa Great North Run is the world’s biggest half marathon and covers a distance of 13.1 miles (21km) through the roads of Newcastle Upon Tyne.

The weather on the day was unexpectedly warm for the North East as most of the country had unsettled weather so all the runners set off in good heart led by Olympic gold medalists Chris Hoy and Rebecca Adlington.
Many runners and teams were there to raise much needed funds for charity and Simply Shutters helped the cause by sponsoring an all ladies team.

Sisters Julie and Wendy Haddock and good family friend Pippa were there to raise money for the Diabetes UK and the Stroke Association and between them they raised almost £2000.
The three girls crossed the line together in a highly creditable time of 2hours 57 minutes given that they have never done this kind of thing before.
The men’s race was won by Olympic marathon bronze medallist Tsegaye Kebede who  led from the start and finished in 59mins 45secs.

Gete Wami, the reigning World Marathon Majors overall champion, won the women’s race by a second in 1hr 8mins 51secs, with Britain’s Jo Pavey coming in third place.
