FORGEFIX LAUNCHES A CHRISTMAS CRACKER

To help boost sales for merchants in the run up to Christmas, leading distributor of fixings, fastenings and associated products ForgeFix has extended its range to include the Professional Hop-Up Work Platform.

Ideal for use in both domestic and trade environments, ForgeFix believes the new platform will prove to be a best seller over the festive season due to its ability to make mid-level at height jobs – such as hanging Christmas lights and putting up decorations – easier than ever.

Less hassle than a ladder and offering greater safety than a stool or chair, the Hop-Up extends to a height of 490mm and benefits from a lightweight aluminium construction for easy transportation. Its fold flat design also makes for convenient and space saving storage.

As well as a generous platform area of 750mm x 300mm that’s capable of supporting loads of up to 150kgs, the Hop-Up also features robust riveted feet with ribbed threads for maximum durability and stability. Plus, to give users added piece of mind, the platform employs two specially designed safety catches and is fully compliant with European standard EN131.

Commenting on the addition of the platform to the ForgeFix range, Mike Smith, Sales and Marketing Director at the business, said: “At ForgeFix, we’re committed to offering our stockists the best products at the best prices at the best times. The Professional Hop-Up Work Platform is the perfect example of this as it’s ideally suited to a wide range of festive tasks. They have been flying off the shelves since their addition to our range and we fully expect to see sales increase still further in the run up to Christmas.”
