Dust sheets (please read)

[gasmanrob]

Morning all

i know a few of us like the British gas style dust sheets, you know the heavy duty waterproof ones. I have made contact with a rep for the company that makes them and so far he has been ace.

After er a recent thread it was suggested that perhaps an alliance/plumbers collective was formed similar to how the merchants operate in regards to buying.

these sheets unfortunately aren't the cheapest but as a former BG minion I can vouch for there quality and durability I still haven't had a sheet last as long as there's did.....

so my question is, is anyone else interested in these sheets and hopefully we can get something done on the price. I have asked about different colours as it can co inside with your brand, personally my choice is black or grey.

i know a few people are keen on raising there image and looking that little bit smarter then the rest. And my opinion is that this is one way to look that bit smarter and perhaps gain more referrals.

And before you all jump over this saying it's just dust sheets what's the point... Too much money for a throw away item etc

think from a customers point of view, heavy dust dust sheets in a colour that matches your company image sprawled out across the customers house showing you care about their property and how your interpreted as a tradesmen in someone's home. Also a few pictures of said sheets layer out in the work area posted on your website.

They can print you logo but minimum order for that would be 400 dust sheets and well.... That's just impractical, so I will take mine to the local printers and get my logo printed on for £3 an item

if your interested please let it be known quick so I can raise the concept with the rep

cheers all

[townfanjon]

me too, as Steve says price important, but also size, are they one size fits all or different sizes.

 

[Irish]

Yeah I'd be up for it , I remember the thread about them

 

[gasmanrob]

Ok I've hit a few speed bumps with this, so am trying to iron them out as we speak and I will come back with prices once I have done so, but please keep letting me know your interest so I know who to message etc once we have a solid price and quantity.

 

[gasmanrob]

Oh and current sizes are 3m x 3m or 1.8 x1.5 and stair runners at 0.8m x 6m

 

[Killy Bing]

Ha, funny you should mention this! I've also been talking to the rep (Dave McGlynn) from Florprotec! I'm interested in how to get them printed with my logo. What printers do you use?

 

[Riley]

[Atouchofgas]

a defo take a few, random question i had a lil fire the other week my blow torch fell over when i was using it(dust sheets went up and burnt the carpet lucky size of 5 pence) still am not looking for burn proof but wee accidents like that will these dust sheets take that. o they were harris cotton dust sheets.

i take a few 3x3 and 2 stair runners

 

[gasmanrob]

Ok good response so far.

massod they won't print individual logos it would be 1 logo on 400 sheets so if we do it collectively as a plain coloured sheet then if we wanted have out logos put on ourselves. I would just use the company that produces my t shirts and jumpers but have them printed rather then embroided.

i think to make this affordable we would need to order around 400 between us but if you think along the lines of placing an annual order rather then just popping into screwfix as you need them then it's not that bad. Just waiting to hear back on what happens to the price if we order that many as individually with no minimum order they just aren't viable so as much interest as we can then I think we are on.

 

[smtplumbing]

depending on the price we could sell them

Ray stafford could get in on this.
