In conjunction with our distributor Hans Werner GmbH & Co and supplier Gerhard Spruegel GmbH, Big Wipes took part in DACH+HOLZ International 2016. The latter is the established key trade fair for the entire roof and timber construction industry. It takes place every two years either in Stuttgart (where we were) or in Cologne.
Nearly 50 000 visitors, including roofers, carpenters, architects and planners, housing societies, property developers, specialised tradespeople, scaffolders, roller shutter and blind producers, walked through the doors in search for products that would make their lives easier.
How can Big Wipes help Dach + Holz International visitors
Many companies exhibited old and new products at DACH+HOLZ International this year. But it is often the smaller, unknown firms that come along to present their clever solutions for the everyday tasks carried out by skilled tradespeople. All the aforementioned visitors have to deal with grease and grime on a daily basis. They need to keep themselves and their work areas clean of fix and repair products including silicone sealants, paints, adhesives, PU foam and general dirt which can be hard to remove – unless they have Big Wipes to hand.
A spill or accidental leak of any material can lead to complaints, costly call backs or a delay in a job being signed off as complete. This could all combine to impact on a tradesperson’s reputation. The Big Wipes team demonstrated that Big Wipes can save workers thousands of pounds or euros in lost time. They enable the quick clearing of spills before they cause permanent damage and potential call backs. Visitors realised that Big Wipes are their first line of insurance against complaints, extra costs, spillages and even skin damage. Furthermore, when you take into account the potential cost of damage caused by spillages and leaks of building materials, using Big Wipes actually saves a company or tradesperson more than they cost.
