The business has transitioned significantly over the 125 years from manufacturing boilers for the shipping industry, to furnishing hundreds of mills built within Leicester and assisting with the war efforts, before finally focussing predominantly on piping and HVAC supplies as the market grew in the 1960’s.

Today, SBS remains family owned with fifth generation family members working within the business, which now consists of 17 branches and over 400 members of staff.

The business says that over the 125 years, it has remained focused on brand promise of staff, stock and service, ensuring customers are at the forefront of every decision, whilst investing in quality.
