PipeSnug
Point of sale boxes
PipeSnug has launched a new Point of Sale box designed to encourage more sales at the trade counter. The PoS box opens out to reveal six smaller boxes of 32mm and 42mm ‘Snugs, which can be removed and used separately if counter space is limited. If space allows, just remove the lids and the full box is there as a pick ‘n’ mix station for merchant customers.
Merchants can replenish stocks by ordering either replacement PoS boxes or the separate refill boxes in packs of five, making life easy.

TRACER
Rebrand from Acer
Due to the growing popularity of its ACER construction marking tools, the Royd Tool Group company says it has “become increasingly important to have a more relevant and less conflicting brand name” to ensure its smooth and continual growth. Accordingly, the new ‘TRACER’ brand has been introduced to take the place of the existing ACER name.
The rebrand officially launched on 6 April 2020 and is being supported by a four-month marketing campaign to ensure both existing and potential customers are made aware of the transition.
