Brammer Buck & Hickman rebrand unveiled

The announcement came on the same day that parent company, IPH-Brammer Group, announced that it is changing its group name and brand identity to Rubix. 

As the UK’s leading distributor of industrial maintenance, repair and overhaul products and services, Brammer merged with Buck & Hickman, a market leader in tools and health & safety products, back in 2011 to become Brammer Buck & Hickman. The union allowed the newly formed business to provide what is reported to be unrivalled product knowledge, advice and technical support, backed by a depth of product range and supply capability which is second to none.

Mark Dixon, CEO at Brammer Buck & Hickman commented: “The rebrand of our parent group, Rubix, seemed the ideal time to roll out the rebrand of Brammer Buck & Hickman. Hillhead provided the perfect platform to reach one of our major markets. We’re pleased to be able to incorporate the Rubix brand name into our new logo – the name signifies problem solving and aligns with the creative and human approach we adopt when providing solutions for our customers.

“The new Brammer Buck & Hickman logo is not just a change of symbol, it is a symbol of the changes that have taken place at Brammer Buck & Hickman. We’re evolving at a fast pace to ensure that we’re offering customers the very best products, best lead-times and best pricing. Above all, our focus is on ensuring that we add value by offering our customers a network of technical experts who are happy and willing to share their knowledge with our customers. By simplifying our logo, we hope to reinforce the brand in the minds of our customers.”
