'Owning the entire product line'

Gardeners and processors can learn about REDSUN's decorative paving at the Green Sector Trade Fair. A complete package, most of which is produced in five in-house factories.

REDSUN is a supplier of natural stone, concrete and ceramics for outdoor spaces. The company was founded in 1985 by Ger van Ommeren. Now the second generation is also working within the company: the three sons hold various management positions within REDSUN. 

Marketing Manager Rolf Keulen: "We import our ceramics and natural stone from all over the world. We produce the concrete ourselves in our factories in Kevelaer, just across the border in Germany." 

REDSUN acts as a "one-stop shop" and typically offers a wide range of ornamental paving products. For example, for a product like CERASUN: a high-quality ceramic tile that is permanently bonded to a concrete tile. This tile is easy to work with and maintain. REDSUN imports the ceramic and turns it into a new product with a self-produced concrete layer and bonding. 

A major advantage of in-house production is the good quality of the concrete. Keulen: "This also makes us a total supplier. We offer gardeners a very complete package of ornamental paving, which we supply through a fixed dealer network. Thus the gardener and private individual are assured of the best advice and service from dealers who know our range well." 

It is the first time REDSUN is participating in the Green Sector Trade Fair. The company's booth is located right at the entrance. "This way people can't avoid us. We have designed a beautiful exhibition stand and hope to speak to many gardeners and processors. That way they can learn about our products and perhaps become REDSUN ambassadors."
