Episode description

What’s behind a flawless floor? Raised access systems, remote teams, and a fifth-wheel caravan. Ryan Ulmer reveals how Access Floors Distribution is shaking up commercial flooring with smart tech, a service-first strategy, and a people-powered approach.

What’s Inside:

  • From Hereford to Newquay: How Access Floors Distribution operates fully remote and still delivers next-day to London
  • Demystifying Raised Access Floors: Hollow floors, screed panels, gypsum systems & why finish dictates your spec
  • Building a lean, scalable business: e-commerce moves, AI usage, and why “Don’t spin your wheels” is the best business advice
