It’s hard to believe another year has flown by. One minute we were debating whether it was too early for mince pies in October, and the next, we’re staring down the barrel of 2026. As 2025 comes to a close, we find ourselves reflecting on what has been another incredible chapter in the Indigo Supplies story—a story that simply wouldn't exist without you.
Since we first opened our doors back in 1998, a lot has changed. We’ve seen trends come and go, technologies evolve, and the industrial landscape shift more times than we can count. But one thing has remained constant for over 27 years: the unwavering support of our fantastic customers. Whether you’ve been with us since the early days of fax orders or you placed your first online order last week, this post is dedicated to you.
Growing Together Since 1998
When Indigo Supplies was established in 1998, our mission was simple: provide high-quality industrial products, save our customers money, and offer service that feels personal. We didn't just want to be another supplier; we wanted to be a partner in your projects.
Looking back at 2025, we are proud to say that mission is still very much alive. We’ve continued to grow and evolve, expanding our ranges in temporary floor protection, adhesive tapes, and packaging supplies to meet your changing needs. But growth isn't just about stocking more products or expanding warehouse space; it's about refining how we serve you.
Your loyalty allows us to keep pushing for better. It drives us to source the best branded and proven products on the market. It motivates us to maintain our price beater guarantee—because we know that in this economy, every penny counts. If you find a cheaper UK price, we still promise to do our utmost to beat it. That commitment hasn’t wavered in nearly three decades, and it won’t change as we head into 2026.
A Year in Review: More Than Just Supplies
2025 was a busy one for us here at Indigo. We’ve shipped miles of Correx® protection, enough packaging tape to wrap the globe (probably twice), and safety signs to sites up and down the country. But beyond the sheer volume of stock leaving our warehouse, what stood out this year was the feedback.
We are incredibly proud to have maintained our 5-star rating. In an age of automated bots and faceless corporations, we know that genuine service is a rare commodity. Reading your reviews—hearing that a last-minute delivery saved a project timeline, or that our team went the extra mile to find a specific solution—is what gets us out of bed in the morning.
We know that construction, industrial work, and logistics don't always run smoothly. Delays happen, weather interferes, and specs change. Our aim has always been to be the reliable constant in that chaos. Thank you for trusting us to be that partner for you this year.
Important Dates for Your Diary
Now, before we get too sentimental and start singing Auld Lang Syne, we need to cover the practicalities. Even the most dedicated suppliers need a little break to recharge (and eat their weight in roast potatoes).
Christmas Closing Times
Please make a note of our shutdown dates to ensure you aren't left without essential kit over the festive period:
- Last Day of Trading: We break up for Christmas on Tuesday, 23rd December 2025.
- Reopening: We return, refreshed and ready to go, on Monday, 5th January 2026.
Need Something Urgently?
If you realize you’ve forgotten something critical after we’ve closed the doors on the 23rd, don't panic. Our online shop is open 24/7 throughout the holiday period.
While our physical dispatch team will be taking a well-earned rest, you can still place orders via indigosupplies.com at any time. We will process these orders immediately upon our return in January, ensuring your stock is on its way to you as a priority for the new year.
Preparing for 2026
As we look ahead to Monday, 5th January 2026, we are already planning new ways to support your business. The industrial sector never stands still, and neither do we. We are constantly reviewing our inventory—from our core range of temporary floor protection to our niche adhesive tapes—to ensure we have exactly what you need, when you need it.
If you have big projects starting in the new year, now is the perfect time to get in touch. Our team is always happy to discuss bulk requirements or specific product sourcing to help you hit the ground running in January.
A Final Note of Gratitude
Running a business since 1998 teaches you that while products are important, relationships are everything. We don't take your custom for granted. We know you have a choice of suppliers, and we are honoured that you continue to choose Indigo Supplies.
From everyone here at Indigo—from the warehouse team packing your boxes to the friendly voices answering the phones—we wish you a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year. May your holidays be restful, your DIY projects successful, and your transition into 2026 be smooth.
Here’s to another year of working together. See you in January!
