At the newly relaunched website of Turton - part of Safety Distribution Ltd - you can look at and learn about a whole range of 'personal protection equipment' products including head protection, eye and face protection, hearing protection, gloves, first aid equipment and so on.
SDL in turn is a part of Sheffield Insulation Group, a large plc with a turnover in excess of £900M. Other companies within SDL include Protec (Manchester), ADB Industrial Gloves & Clothing (Taunton) and Bathgate Protective Clothing (Chester), which offers a manufacturing facility for standard and bespoke designed gloves and associated products.
Each of these Companies has its own web site, which offers an online catalogue of the products available and normally kept in stock. Paul described the £3.5M stock holding that is kept in Wednesbury, West Midlands and which can provide a rapid delivery throughout the UK.
SDL, like many similar companies, set up the initial web sites to keep in line with current trends.
