WORKWEAR FOR EVER-CHANGING DAYS

»»
KEEPING WARM AND DRY when working through the colder months requires something extra from your workwear . In addition , many construction sites demand that your workwear hold the visibility certification EN ISO 20471 . Get it all in two newly developed ranges from MASCOT .
You know the drill . Some days it is too cold in the morning to work in only a sweatshirt , but by lunchtime , it ’ s too hot for a jacket . Then , when you ’ re most
busy , it starts to rain . Maybe you have to swing by a construction site that demands high-visibility clothing . It can be hard to find
one piece of workwear that fits all your needs .
It is about being able to create functional combinations of the
individual craftsman ’ s favourite product types . Just as the weather differs , each individual worker in the construction industry also has different preferences . Some prefer a heavy winter jacket , while others prefer an outer shell jacket and still others , a water-repellent thermal jacket . MASCOT has launched two full ranges of workwear that fit perfectly together in design and functionality , creating a virtually endless number of combination possibilities .

Aluminium workshops help sales

»»
MORE THAN 65 REAL Aluminium installation firms have seen their aluminium sales go through the roof after switching to Customade ’ s REAL Aluminium range and attending a comprehensive one-day customer workshop .
The REAL Customer Day is the latest advance from Customade under its ‘ REAL Aluminium ’ offering , which equips the installer with all the tools they need to promote and sell the most extensive range
aluminium windows , doors and lantern roofs available from a single supplier . The workshops have de-mystified the process of promoting , quoting , selling and ordering aluminium and helped installers to increase their aluminium sales by an average of 281 %.
Claire Miller , Customade Group ’ s marketing manager , explains : “ Despite the huge popularity of aluminium and the greater profit margins it brings , installers are still left frustrated
by antiquated service levels and complex pricing models . We wanted to cut through these barriers and gather our installers to help them understand more about aluminium and how it can grow their businesses . The REAL Customer Day is all about boosting their confidence to move into aluminium and to see that it really doesn ’ t have to be difficult .”
Customade is planning to run one REAL Customer
Day a month throughout 2017 . To find out more , call 01453 826884 or visit www . real-aluminium . co . uk
