The UK’s leading timber and panel products distributor, James Latham, has been invited to present at the National Association of Shopfitters’ (NAS) Autumn general meeting in October.

Lathams deputy chairman, Peter Latham, and director, Chris Sutton, will be delivering a speech at the AGM for the association which promotes all aspects of the shopfitting industry and provides specialist advice and services needed for members to succeed in the marketplace.

James Latham is a member of the NAS, and Peter and Chris have been asked to deliver a guide to environmental certification schemes to the organisation in a bid to make the members more aware of this important issue.

Robert Hudson, Director of the NAS said: "Lathams have been most helpful when we have had the need to contact them and have been generous sponsors of both regional and national meetings. They regularly send their updated product and environmental brochures to our members".

Peter commented: "We want to capitalise on every opportunity to get the message of sustainability across to all sectors of the construction industry, so we are very excited at this opportunity. Lathams does a lot of work with shopfitters, so we were particularly pleased when we were asked to present at the NAS general meeting."
