We are revolutionising the way flat roofs are designed, installed, used and maintained.
Based in our home of Ipswich, Suffolk, we are a vibrant team of creative, dedicated and ambitious professionals all working towards a collective vision: to improve the roofscape and transform the world above our heads. We are inspired by the extraordinary and always seek out more sustainable and innovative ways to waterproof better.
We design roofing systems for flat roofs that benefit our climate and communities.
It is an honour for me to lead this unique company and to work alongside our team of creative professionals. We are committed to sustainability and have big ideas about how we can make a difference in the industry and in our wider communities. We are curious about the future and approach each project with fresh and eager minds.
Phillip Wilcox-Moore Managing Director of Axter Limited
We imagine a world where the roof is used to its full potential, protecting what's inside the building but also benefitting the climate and communities that surround it. We are ambitious and by utilising our knowledge, imagination and advanced system portfolio we will make this a reality.
We plan to achieve this vision by following and achieving the goals set out in our Sustainability Pathway, by engaging and driving forward our message through campaigns such as the Roof Revolution, by helping to improve the local Suffolk community, and by showcasing what our highly skilled technical and design teams can do with our innovative system portfolio.
The way we work and the way we think is what sets our service apart. We are a small and driven team, working with the latest technologies to minimise risk and maximise potential. We provide a full service from concept design to completion and handover.
We are recognised throughout the industry for our comprehensive system portfolio, market leading product quality and technical expertise. This gives us the flexibility and reliability needed when specifying roofing projects.
Our pathway to becoming a recognised sustainability first company has begun. We are currently undertaking the B Impact Assessment with our sustainability partners and carrying out robust carbon assessments on each of our systems.
We are a partnership-based business made up of people who believe that collaboration makes everyone stronger. Our framework agreements, installer memberships and exclusive stockist arrangements are in place to benefit all those involved.
