The world's oldest producer of worm generate
has embarked over a massive offensive to earn new business from Europe.

A set representing united kingdom producer Jubilee Clips will go to 'Eisenwarenmesse – The worldwide Hardware Fair’ in Cologne (4th-7th March), in which they will current a top-quality product broad variety backed by market-leading services levels.

Key to its new method may be the appointment of Ingo Ingrillini since the company’s earliest European income Manager. Ingo worked previously in an administrative part for Jubilee Clips Deutschland GmbH but will now spearhead the generate to earn new orders from Continental wholesalers and principal small groups.

He can be joined near to the Jubilee Clips stand on the hardware industry’s biggest showcase celebration by father-and-son set John and Ian Jennings, the company’s Joint Managing Directors, and by long-serving basic income Manager Chris Bunting.

Jubilee Clips produces a extensive broad variety of 600 mild metal zinc and stainless metal clips and clamps, that are employed largely by customers even although in the automotive, hydraulics and pneumatics, and marine sectors.

As properly as normal worm generate clips, the line-up consists of huge torque, wingspade and multiband variants, pincer-fixed ‘O’ clips, Juniors (nut & bolt clamps) and Superclamps (heavy duty bolt clamps) – the most current inclusion in the direction of the line-up, a Superclamp in 304 grade stainless metal (which is priced amid the mild metal and corrosion-resistant 316 grade stainless variants belonging in the direction of a comparable product), has just been introduced in response to customer need and will be on show in Cologne.

Based in Gillingham, Kent, Jubilee Clips employs a workforce of 130. Its parent business L Robinson & Co was founded by Commander Lumley Robinson RN – Ian Jennings’ great-grandfather – who took out the patent on his genuine worm generate hose clip in 1921; it is now extensively acknowledged getting a design and design classic.

"We are at current a extremely productive exporter," factors out Ian Jennings, “with half our yearly producing steering to overseas markets. But at 16 every cent, the proportion that is marketed to Europe is pretty small.

“This is in which we see an fascinating probability to attain new growth. Europe, and especially Germany, is truly a enormous possible market. The rivals is fierce but using a premium broad variety of options produced to all the right united kingdom and EU level of quality standards, as well as a customer-focused method that is underpinned by our family people business ethos, we are up using the challenge.”

Quality of design and design and manufacture, and of services in conditions of commodity availability along using the general, ‘can do’ helpfulness of its staff, can be the vital attributes on which Jubilee Clips has made its reputation. even although its options are continually competitively priced, Ian Jennings acknowledges that much less expensive options can invariably be found.

“But getting on price tag alone is foolhardy even although in the extreme,” he continues. “Even one of the favored hose clips and clamps are affordable if you look on the procedure they perform, along using the potentially catastrophic implications of the failure with a sub-standard product on what may be considered a instead vital and important product of equipment.”

And he adds: “The worldwide Hardware reasonable represents an perfect system to market our company. we are instead a terrific offer looking forward to renewing acquaintances with current customers and also to getting together with possible new ones.”
