Throughout the duration of the pandemic, Professional Builder and Professional Heating & Plumbing Installer magazines have continued to communicate with professional tradespeople across the nation, increasing their digital reach when trade counters were closed.
As work continues to ramp up despite further restrictions, PBM looks at some of the advertising campaigns to feature in the latest issues as active suppliers seek to influence the buying decisions of approaching 200,000 trade professionals at merchant branches each month.
Senco
Next gen Duraspin screwdriver
The ad boldly proclaims that “20 years after Senco revolutionised drywall fixing comes the latest generation of collated screwdrivers with a host of new features designed to make hard work easy”. Such features include a new feed on return for faster and jam-free fixing and a new five-year warranty.

RWC
Connected thinking…
Taking installers from the ‘boiler to the point of use’, RWC is promoting how its family of products unite to offer an integrated solution that is fast and simple to fit. For instance, the plastic pipe connection technology of JG Speedfit is used in tandem with brass SharkBite to give a complete push-fit solution. Together with the pressure and temperature control valves from Reliance, the company states your customers will have everything they need.
