About Us

About Us

 

Family Values

Our family business was founded over 50 years ago, and under second-generation leadership we have renewed our commitment to reducing our environmental impact.

We actively work to minimise waste by reducing packaging and cardboard for our customers, and by installing energy-efficient motion-sensor lighting across our UK and China facilities.

We have invested in energy-efficient heating systems, solar panels, improved roof insulation, electric forklift trucks, and hybrid vehicles for our team, with the ambition to transition to fully electric vehicles in the future.

Each year, we explore new developments in science and engineering that allow us to grow responsibly while minimising our impact on the planet.

These ongoing efforts help us maintain low energy consumption across all areas of our business.

Ethos

At Speedy Products, we recognise that people work hard to support themselves and their families. That understanding drives our commitment to delivering reliable, high-quality products at fair and competitive prices. By working directly with our manufacturing operations and removing unnecessary intermediaries, we ensure greater value, consistency, and transparency for our customers.

We take pride in operating responsibly and ethically across our supply chain. Our business is supported by a strong framework of internationally recognised standards and certifications, including SEDEX, BSCI, REACH, WRAP, and ISO 9001:2015, reflecting our commitment to quality management, ethical sourcing, and regulatory compliance.

As the largest independent supplier in our market, we maintain full control over production through ownership of our manufacturing facility in China. This allows us to closely manage quality, working conditions, and environmental practices. Our on-site product testing laboratory ensures that all products meet required safety, performance, and compliance standards before reaching our customers.

Through direct manufacturing, rigorous testing, and responsible business practices, we are able to offer dependable products, competitive pricing, and long-term partnerships built on trust and integrity.

Product Range Overview

Our business has developed two distinct product brands to serve the differing needs of both the retail and commercial markets. While each brand has its own identity and specialist focus, both are built on the same foundations of quality manufacturing, innovative design, reliability, and exceptional customer service.

Speedy Products is our dedicated retail brand, offering an extensive range of pre-packed window furnishing solutions designed for homeowners, DIY enthusiasts, and retail customers. The range combines style, practicality, and ease of installation, making it ideal for independent retailers, home improvement stores, and online marketplaces.

Our extensive product range offers both decorative and functional solutions for windows. We supply a wide selection of window blinds, including Venetian, roller, and Roman blinds, designed to complement a wide variety of interiors and applications. Alongside our blind collections, Speedy Products offers curtain poles in multiple diameters, complemented by an extensive choice of decorative finials to suit both contemporary and traditional interiors. The range is further enhanced with decorative curtain tracks, robust functional curtain track systems, and specialist solutions for bay and corner windows, providing customers with complete window dressing solutions that combine style, quality, and performance.

For the professional and specification market, Paloma represents our specialist commercial brand. Developed to meet the demanding requirements of contractors, architects, interior designers, healthcare providers, hospitality groups, and commercial installers, the Paloma range has earned a reputation for engineering excellence, durability, and dependable performance across a wide range of project types.

The Paloma product portfolio has been carefully developed to provide solutions for both standard and bespoke installations. Key ranges include the innovative Quick LockSupport system, the highly versatile KT Range, and the premium Styleline Range, each designed to deliver exceptional strength, smooth operation, and long-term reliability. These systems are suitable for both surface-fixed and ceiling-mounted applications and can be manufactured to accommodate straight, curved, bay, and recessed installations.

Paloma curtain track systems are specified across a broad range of sectors, including:

Hotel curtain track systems

Hospital privacy curtain systems

Care home curtain tracks

Student accommodation curtain tracks

Office partition curtain tracks

Theatre curtain track systems

Luxury residential curtain tracks

Pleated curtain track systems, like the wave curtain systems

Together, the Speedy Products and Paloma brands provide a complete portfolio of window furnishing solutions for both residential and commercial markets. From stylish retail products for everyday home interiors to high-performance commercial curtain track systems specified for demanding environments, our brands offer customers the confidence of proven quality, thoughtful design, and decades of manufacturing expertise. By continually investing in product development and responding to the changing needs of the market, we remain committed to delivering innovative, reliable, and attractive window dressing solutions for every application.

 
 

From humble beginnings to international trading

Over 50 years ago, Ivor Seddon set out with a clear vision: to innovate and advance the world of curtain and blind hardware. What began as a passion-driven market stall operation soon evolved into a manufacturing business, design house, and international trading company.

The first stage of this journey saw the development of a UK-based manufacturing and distribution centre, laying strong foundations for quality and reliability. The next stage required a bold and ambitious step onto the global stage, leading to the establishment of our own manufacturing facility in China and enabling us to serve customers worldwide.

Innovation has always been central to our business—not only in product design, but also in the way we operate. We continually invest in new technologies, reduce waste through smarter packaging design, and regularly review our carbon footprint to minimise environmental impact.

Each year, we build on this legacy, striving to move forward, achieve more, and shape a more sustainable and innovative future.

We’re constantly evolving

Today, Speedy Products remains firmly rooted in Salford, UK, where our headquarters, sales, customer service, administration, warehousing, and product development teams continue to operate. Since 2008, we have also been proud owners of Paloma, our dedicated window furnishing manufacturing facility in China. This integrated global presence combines British product development with world-class manufacturing, placing us in a strong position to deliver the quality, value, innovation, and service that today's retailers, commercial partners, and consumers expect.

As our business has evolved, so too has our product offering. Alongside our successful ready-made and pre-packed ranges, we have expanded into a comprehensive made-to-measure service, offering bespoke window furnishing solutions tailored to individual customer requirements. From made-to-measure curtain tracks and curtain poles to customised commercial systems, this enhanced service allows us to provide precision-engineered products for projects where quality, performance, and exact specification are essential. Our made-to-measure capability further strengthens our position as a complete supplier of window furnishing solutions for both residential and commercial markets.

While we continue to build on a proud history of success, our focus remains firmly on the future. We are committed to continuous product innovation, investment in new technologies, and developing solutions that meet the changing needs of our customers. Our well-established environmental and ethical policies underpin every aspect of our business, helping to reduce waste, improve operational efficiency, and create sustainable value for both our customers and our organisation.

Customer service remains at the heart of everything we do. Our experienced sales, technical, and product development teams provide knowledgeable, personalised support, helping customers select the right products and solutions for every application. To further enhance the customer experience, we have invested in a comprehensive online ordering platform and retail marketing support programme, making it easier than ever for our customers to access our products, marketing resources, and expert advice.

Whether supplying retail-ready products, bespoke made-to-measure solutions, or commercial specification systems, our commitment remains the same—to deliver exceptional quality, innovative products, reliable service, and lasting partnerships built on trust, expertise, and over four decades of industry experience.
