Why Choose YTM?
Design /dɪˈzʌɪn/
The art of deciding how something will look

as a concept…
Design at YTM covers a broad spectrum of activity, from the quick sketch of a new product idea
through to AutoCAD space plans for an entire new project.
Design doesn’t just account for how something looks, but also how it’s made; we follow a
rigorous development process from sketch all the way to physical prototype. At YTM having
creative people to generate new designs and the latest industry leading software to enable
you to visualise these through digital representations is paramount. Our design process then
ensures we find the best route for manufacture so that the final product fulfils your exact
requirements without breaking the bank.

what this means for you…
At YTM we work closely with our customers in order to understand
your needs and what you want from a product or service, and it’s
the result of these close relationships that we can help you find
solutions to your design problems.
We pride ourselves on our ability to provide inspirational and
appropriate designs that can’t be found anywhere else. We provide
a comprehensive design service offering including spatial planning,
bespoke product design and interior design to prepare and furnish
all areas of your care home.

Manufacture /manjʊˈfaktʃə/
The making of goods by manual labour or machinery

as a concept…
To be a manufacturer in the UK is the foundation of what YTM represents, providing local job
opportunities and skill development to support our home economy and help secure the future
of the next generation; we strongly believe it is something that every buyer should look for
when sourcing furniture for their care home.
We own two production sites that account for all of our cabinet, upholstery and soft
furnishings production; as a manufacturer we have greater control over the accuracy and
quality of our output to ensure that the goods and services you receive are of the highest
standard and provide lasting durability.

what we’re offering to you…
At YTM in-house manufacturing capabilities enable
us to be flexible and although we provide an extensive
product portfolio we also offer a bespoke service
to design and manufacture care home furniture to
your specifications, supporting you in providing your
residents with the best care possible.
By dealing directly with a manufacturer you can be
confident that your budget is being used to purchase
the highest quality product and not in providing
unnecessary third party margins.

Innovation /ɪnəˈveɪʃ(ə)n/
A new idea or doing something different

as a concept…
Innovation and ingenuity are principles we highly value at YTM; we pride
ourselves on our new ideas and we are not fearful of trying something
different. As a team we encourage brainstorming activities, the sharing of
ideas and creative thinking. Whether developing a new idea for our own
portfolio or producing something specific to the requirements of a customer
we thrive on pushing existing boundaries by creating original solutions. The
care sector as a whole may be an environment that has specific needs but that
doesn’t mean to say that these can’t be met with creative flair and inspiration.

what we’re offering to you…
Innovation is a principle that requires bold moves and confidence, to lead and initiate not to follow. We know that
you are increasingly looking for new ideas to ensure that your homes exceed the ever rising expectations of your
residents and their families. By choosing to work with YTM you can ensure that you’ll stay ahead of the competition.
Innovation can take place in product design, in a certain style or theme or a completely revolutionary concept and so
whether you’re looking for support, an injection of inspiration or you already have a grand scheme in mind but you
just need someone to make it happen, then come to YTM.

Environment
At YTM we aim to be an environmentally conscious organisation; we believe it is our responsibility to understand how our actions affect the
environment that we work and live in and that we should do all that we can to minimise any negative impact that we may cause.
As part of our business culture we encourage every member of our organisation to contribute to our environmental performance, to help
maintain the standards that we set and to follow the procedures we put in place, and we welcome any suggestions for improvement. We also
encourage our customers, suppliers and other stakeholders to do the same.
Our commitment to protect the environment is integral to our business and we make every effort to…


…comply with and exceed the requirements of current environmental legislation and relevant industry codes of best practice



…design and manufacture our products to make efficient use of resources and raw materials in order to minimise waste generation



…limit the amount of waste sent to landfill by recycling as much as possible



…procure products and components from sustainable sources or that have been made using recycled materials



…prevent unnecessary energy consumption by turning off ighting and machinery when not in use



…implement energy saving measures such as using waste materials for our wood burners, making our factories self-sufficient for heating



…ensure our vehicle fleet is amongst the most efficient available and maintained to the highest standards to minimise pollution



…minimise our carbon footprint by coordinating customer deliveries by location to prevent partial loads and repeated journeys.

We also understand that as our business changes, so does the impact we have on our surroundings; we therefore promise to regularly review and
where possible improve upon our environmental performance, including assessment of any new products or processes we intend to introduce,
in order to preserve the future of our business and our environment.
