His proactive engagement with the plumbing community has ensured that Inta’s product development closely aligns with the needs of plumbers and installers, focusing on practical, reliable solutions that enhance safety and efficiency in plumbing installations.

Under the guidance of Stuart and Cynthia, Inta has been recognised in industry awards and has solidified its position as a key player in the UK market, not only supplying its branded products but also providing white label components to other manufacturers. This strategic focus on community engagement and safety has helped shape industry standards and foster a more secure working environment for plumbing professionals.
