Looks like a good site Mark, easy to navigate and not too fussy, nice and professional looking.
A couple of things,( if you are looking for some 'constructive' comments)
Certification , I look at a lot of websites for suppliers( often out of normal hours by the time I want to issue it) I need to compile bidders list and decide if I want to send an enquiry, I will always want to check out certification, ideally I will be able to download them, but the very least I will want to do is view them online, to see if I will add your firm to the bidders list. I would look at putting that stuff online, most suppliers I deal with do.
My pet hate is online forms, ( with no alternative email) and this is why:-
I need want email address, because I am busy, I have prepared an enquiry document to issue to several suppliers ,( possibly out of hours) very likely with other attachments , and the return will be on a deadline. I can't wait around waiting 24 hours for someone to get back to me, plus I will want to put a delivered receipt on it and a Read receipt.
Form don't give me that info. And don't let me send attachments, you might not see that enquiry from me if I have lots of options, or am on a tight schedule.
Don't worry about the online form, a business email when it arrives will have a email address (of course, it is an email ) name, company , position, telephone etc on it, why do I want to type it all on a form.
