Case Study: Commercial Electrix
One of our foundation clients. Still with us. And still growing.
Commercial Electrix fits out commercial kitchens and laundries, and sells the equipment to go in them. Their old website was not telling that story. Here is what changed when it did.
New premises
Business growth drove a move into larger premises.
More staff
More enquiries required additional team members
Self-managed
Team updates the site independently using the built-in CMS
The Situation
Commercial Electrix came to Web8 as one of our foundation clients, backing us before we had a long track record to point to. That kind of early trust means a lot, and it drives you to deliver.
The business operates in a specialist space: full fit-outs of commercial kitchens and laundries, alongside the equipment sales that go with them. It is technical, high-value work serving hospitality operators, hotels, healthcare facilities, and commercial laundry businesses. Their existing website was not communicating any of that clearly. In a market where buyers research thoroughly before making contact, that was costing them work.
What We Did
We built a professional website that clearly presented both sides of the business: the fit-out services and the equipment sales. Getting the structure right mattered here because these are different buyers with different needs, and the site needed to speak to both without either getting lost.
We integrated a CMS so the team could manage their own content without coming back to us every time something needed updating. The platform was also built on scalable software so that online equipment sales pages could be added cleanly when the business was ready for that step.
“When a foundation client puts their trust in you, you go the extra mile. Commercial Electrix does complex, high-value work and the website needed to reflect that from the moment someone landed on it.”

Site live. Enquiries began building. Online equipment sales pages added seamlessly as the business expanded that part of the offering.
