About

Our story

Solus has been a family owned and operated company since 1995. Solus has grown to occupy our current warehouse and headquarters in Birmingham, a ceramics library and collaboration space in the heart of London’s design district, and a showroom in central Manchester.

We supply architectural ceramics globally, providing peerless service to our customers and partners. We want to be the most trusted and sustainable ceramics supplier in the world. Our founder was a hard-working, self-made man who was loyal to his staff, customers, and clients. We hope to emulate his example and continue the success of the business he started – a business that sustains a team of over a hundred.

Sustainability at Solus

Solus shows leadership in sustainable business practices within the construction sector. We use our position between manufacture and market to advocate strongly for sustainability.

Our Sustainability Manager holds us accountable to our commitments and has audited our business, reporting on energy use, carbon footprint, and material recycling. We have created a roadmap to change our business and make us more sustainable. We work with manufacturers who share our commitment to sustainability. We have reviewed the sustainability credentials of all our products and producers, and we promote those which adhere to the highest ecological standards.

Our RIBA approved CPD, Moving Earth, explores how ceramics contribute to sustainable architecture. Ceramics are a demonstrably more sustainable alternative to many surfacing solutions available on the market today.

Partnerships

We are able to maintain longstanding partnerships with our customers and manufacturers because of the exceptional quality of service that we provide.

Solus began as a supplier of ceramics to the automotive sector, specifically car showrooms. We are trusted to represent leading brands with the best materials and our partners rely on us to make projects happen. We work closely with the Architecture and Design community and have a long list of high-profile projects that our service has supported.

Our partnerships are key to our mission and vision for our future. We strive to make working with Solus effortless and agreeable.

Culture

Solus has been awarded Investors in People – Gold. We promote an inclusive, supportive, and progressive company culture. Transparency and communication are key to fostering a positive work environment in which every team member feels essential. We host regular social and team events that often have a charitable focus to support a sense of belonging.

Solus contributes to the cultural life of its community. We support architects, visual artists, crafts people, gastronomists, sommeliers, brewers, distillers, musicians, and DJs with our events in Manchester and Birmingham. We collaborate with our partners to produce unique installations, original films, and a diverse programme of talks.

Our company culture and our contributions to culture support our mission and vision because a happy team and happy partners get results.
