What we stand for
Built on Principles.
Proven Over Fifty Years.
For over 50 years, Protex has been the name electricians, engineers and resellers turn to when quality, price and speed matter most.
01 — Trust
The Supplier British Trades Have Relied On Since 1972
Over five decades of supplying electrical contractors, M&E engineers and resellers across the UK. We're not just a supplier — we're a long-standing trade partner. Fully accredited and Part P registered, you can order with complete confidence every single time.
02 — Quality
Trade-Grade Products. Professional Standards. No Compromises.
Every product we stock is chosen by people who've worked in the trade. We know what professionals need on site — reliable kit that performs, backed by a local team that knows their stuff. No shortcuts. No substitutes. Just quality you can count on.
03 — Pricing
Competitive Pricing. Superior Service. Every Time.
Why pay more elsewhere? As a local independent wholesaler and retailer, we offer sharp trade pricing and dedicated account managers — without the big corporate price tag. We go head-to-head with the national chains on price, but beat them every time on personal service, expert knowledge and the kind of relationship that keeps trades coming back for over 50 years.
04 — Speed
Order Today. On Your Doorstep Tomorrow.
Time is money on site. That's why we offer same-day dispatch on orders placed before 3pm, with next-day delivery available nationwide. Every consignment is fully tracked, so you always know exactly where your order is.
05 — Local
Big Stock. Local Knowledge. Personal Service.
We're proud to be a local business with deep roots in the community. That means real people answering your calls, fast decisions, and a team that genuinely knows you by name. Get the buying power of a national supplier with the personal touch only a local business can offer.
