3 WHAT WE DO Grain is the most advanced fibre broadband network in the UK. Using the latest broadband technology, we tailor the right solution for every community and deliver unbeatable service, customer satisfaction and reliability. The mean UK broadband speed is 18Mb/s and customers often face a six-week delay before they get connected. We are here to solve this by delivering a hyperfast broadband connection, live and free on day one.

4 TRUE FIBRE We design, build, install and maintain a new true fibre network in each community. We provide every home with a unique fibre path capable of delivering speeds over 1,000 megabits per second (Mb/s). Most networks in the UK can t do this because they incorporate existing often shared copper cabling. This limits performance and impacts the connection consistency and speed. Our broadband Typical broadband Uncontended and Future Proof In addition to hyperfast speeds, our networks provide a completely uncontended connection, meaning customers don t have to share their connection, and don t have to deal with slow-downs at peak times. Our fibre broadband is designed to last for decades, we could easily provide 120Gbs broadband when the market demands it.
