‘It was clear from our initial meetings with AMG that they have a great wealth of knowledge when it comes to providing balustrade solutions, what stood out for me though was the quality of the products and what great value for money the products offer.  I was aware of their experience of designing and installing stunning glass balustrades across Europe.’
