Prices online reflect the current Directa (UK) price and we believe offer good value for money. Some customers do enjoy better prices on some products based on the amount they spend as an account, or on particular products. These preferential prices will be visible to these customers when we do the next upgrade and release of the Directa (UK) website. They will only be visible after the customer has logged in with their account number. Customers who have these specific prices should continue to order them over the telephone, but may find the convenience of web ordering worthwhile for smaller volume, ad-hoc buying when there is little to be gained from a negotation process. If you have a large quantity of products to purchase or buy an item on a regular basis we would be very happy to quote you. Please either ring us on 01621 828882, email us at sales@directa.co.uk.

The prices in the Directa (UK) Website are dynamic. This means they change in response to market conditions, raw material prices, cost prices from our suppliers and so on. Prices can go down as well as up! At all times we attempt to price our products competitively on the website for ad-hoc requirements for larger quantities we are very happy to quote. Offical quotations do come with prices held for a fixed period stated on the quote, usually 30 days.

As we are a B2B distributor, our products and services are deliberately shaped and geared towards industry. To that end we quote our Prices exclusive of VAT.
