Alastair started off working in sales after leaving school, and fairly shortly afterwards, started in the Stone Industry.<\/p>

Having developed key contacts, in 2004, he decided to form his own Stone Maintenance company, trading as Silex UK.<\/p>

Over the past 20 years, he and his team have grown the business, focusing on the UK & the Channel Islands.<\/p>

As well as overseeing & managing the business, he is still sometimes spotted on the grinding and polishing machines.<\/p>
