Information regarding the supply of PPE related to SARS – COVID-19

The German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy has restricted the export of certain goods from the personal protective equipment category as a result of the epidemiological crisis triggered by the SAR – CoV – 2 coronavirus.

The export and shipment of the following goods have been prohibited with immediate effect:

• Goggles – EN166 / ANSI / ISEA Z87.1
• Face Shields – EN166 / ANSI / ISEA Z87.1
• Filtering face pieces – EN 149 FFP2 / FFP3
• Protective suits – EN13795 / AAMI PB level 3 performance or higher
• Gloves – EN455 / EN374 / ANSI/ISEA 105 / ASTM D6319

This Directive came into effect at the time of publication on March 4th 2020. The Federal Republic of Germany is justifying this step in the follow terms: 

Meeting demand for the goods in question is essential to ensure the health system in Germany continues to function properly in the Federal Republic of Germany. The goods described above count as clinical protective equipment designed for infectious disease scenarios, both to prevent transmission to clinical personnel and to protect the healthy population against infection by those that are sick.  Due to the epidemiological crisis triggered by the SARS – CoV – 2 coronavirus in many countries, there has been a significant increase in global demand for clinical protective equipment, including the goods referred to above.

Given the increase in the number of confirmed infections within the European Union and the Federal Republic of Germany, domestic demand for these goods is understandably increasing. While demand continues to rise, production capacities at local, regional and national levels are limited and no longer sufficient to respond to the change in demand impacting on the healthcare sector which is already having to contend with significant bottlenecks. It is already impossible to meet demand from hospitals, doctors and pharmacies either in full or sufficiently quickly and with the number of cases increasing in Germany there is a genuine risk of shortages.

We are very sorry to have to stop all supplies of the aforementioned products until such time that this directive is suspended.   

The management of UVEX SAFETY GROUP Gmbh & Co. KG

Dear Valued Customer,

Our staff at Bunzl Cleaning & Hygiene Supplies have a combined service of several thousand years, however, nobody can remember such a surge in demand to the extent of what we are currently experiencing. We can, therefore, say with some confidence that we are in a completely unprecedented period and ask for your support and understanding at this exceptional time.

The purpose of this short note is to further explain the current situation and outline some of the hard work that is being undertaken by our teams in very challenging circumstances.

Products

We are experiencing extraordinary level of orders, 3/4x our usual levels, even after some of the mitigating actions we have outlined below.

Our teams are working with our manufacturer partners to source and secure future stock. In most instances, we are our manufacturer partners biggest customers, and they are rightly prioritising deliveries to us as well as the NHS. However, we are experiencing some shortages in Coronavirus related stocks (hand gels, sanitisers etc.), due to the demand for which is more than 50x usual levels.

We have made several concrete actions to ensure we maintain supply for these Coronavirus related products:

• In many instances, our manufacturer partners have been instructed by the government to limit sales of Coronavirus related products to the NHS and first-line responders (police, ambulance and the fire service). If you are a customer which fits this profile, we will already be working to provide these products to you.
• As and when further product becomes available (and we have written assurances that we are second in the priority list after the NHS) we will start releasing this to non-NHS and front-line responders.
• We are having daily calls with our key manufacturer partners to discuss manufacturing capacity, demand and delivery timescales. This is, however, an incredibly fluid process, with the availability of Coronavirus related product stocks changing by the minute.
• We are sourcing alternative Coronavirus related products using our extensive global network of approved suppliers. We are sourcing these from within and outside of the UK, however, most of these products have longer lead times than usual (6-8 weeks is not uncommon).
• We have removed all Coronavirus related products from our public websites so they cannot be purchased by non-existing customers.
• We are not supplying non-existing customers with any Coronavirus related products.

We currently have no current manufacturer supply issues on non-coronavirus related products, however, to maintain product availability to all customers, we may need to reduce quantities in instances of obvious bulk buying, in particular where orders are over double the regular ordering run rates. We hope you understand that this measure is necessary for the continued stability of the supply chain.

Operations

We have implemented several measures of our well tested and comprehensive Business Continuity Plan to deal with the surge in orders that we are currently experiencing. We have outlined these below, and enclosed is a copy of our Coronavirus specific Business Continuity Plan as Appendix 1 to this document.

In addition to our extensive own fleet, we will be:

• Asking all staff to work additional hours over the next two weeks including weekends.
• Ensuring driver routing is to the maximum available hours.
• Recruiting temporary additional drivers and vehicles.
• Organising pallet carriers for large suitable orders so increasing capacity over and above our vehicle fleet.
• Moving all small suitable orders and customers onto a parcel delivery service so increasing capacity over and above our vehicle fleet.
• Recruiting temporary staff for picking and packing parcel deliveries.
• Asking which customers can take a night or weekend delivery (if this is of interest please talk to your account manager).

Thank you again for your continued business, your understanding and your support through this challenging period. There may be some delays in the current unprecedented period, however, all our staff are working tirelessly and in many cases around the clock to serve all customers as quickly as possible.

Yours Sincerely,

David Cousins
Managing Director
 

In light of the current circumstances around the recent CoronaVirus outbreak we have reviewed our Business Continuity plan and have concluded the following:

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Contingency / Continuity Plan:

The primary objectives of this policy are to:
A. Minimise the risk of Bunzl Cleaning & Hygiene Supplies (BCHS) staff contracting the virus
B. Support our customer’s, should there be an outbreak within their company
C. Maintain an acceptable level of customer service
D. Return to normal service as quickly as possible

Bunzl Cleaning & Hygiene Supplies Staff:

• An outbreak barrier pack consisting of alcohol wipes, anti-viral surface cleaner and hand sanitiser are being stored at all distribution points and will be distributed to BCHS staff in all areas of the business
• All drivers will be issued with relevant PPE such as masks, sanitisers, disposable gloves etc. to minimise their risk of contracting the infection when making deliveries
• Training provided to all employees on the correct PPE that is required and the extra steps to take such as increased hand washing, information leaflets and hygiene posters have been issued
• To minimise the risk of contracting the virus, we have reviewed what functions with our business need remote access. We have identified key functions that can work from home utilising the new implementation of the Microsoft teams software and existing virtual networks
• Restrictions have been placed on visits, or direct meetings, with customers or suppliers where these are thought to carry a high risk of infection
• Hygiene protocols have been implemented; this includes changes in cleaning regimes at all locations, extra time to be taken on touchpoints such as handles, doors, desks, counters, handrails, telephones, tables and chairs, taps, switches, sides/work surfaces, and the promotion of catch it, bin it, kill it principles
• Staff are encouraged to self-isolate if they feel they may have any symptoms, new sick pay regulations have been issued to all employees in light of this outbreak • In the event of a significant percentage of warehouse distribution employed staff being infected at the same time, contingencies have been prepared over the past weeks to enable the branch warehousing function to operate effectively whilst utilising large numbers of limited knowledge agency staff • Due to our unique branch structure, operating on a single ERP system, if a percentage of IT staff employed were to be infected at the same time, we can rely on our sister companies who share this ERP system, including shared IT resource across Bunzl UK Ltd

Communication and continuity of supply to our Customers:

• Contact will be made with all major customers explaining the current situation and initial measures being taken by BCHS advising key supplies are prioritised to the NHS
• Customers will be advised that limited face-to-face meetings may take place during this outbreak
• Customers will be asked to inform BCHS where any delivery site is deemed to be of high risk and alternative delivery points may be requested to minimise the risk to both BCHS and customer staff
• Should any our 19 BCHS branch locations be unable to maintain a satisfactory delivery service because of high numbers of infected staff, the other 18 BCHS branches or a third-party alternative (pallet carriers and courier companies), or both, will be put into operation to ensure there is no reduction in our commitment to the customers
• Internally we have 2 units of CLOROX T360 (proven to kill the COVID-19 virus), are on standby to deep clean any branch locations that may become infected. Deep cleaning utilising this machine can be completed in less than 1 hour
• In addition to our 19 locations, we have a substantial sized National Distribution Centre whereby we can dispatch directly to customer sites
• Should any BCHS site be unable to operate its administration because of high numbers of infected staff our IT systems will allow this to be done remotely at home or at another site that has not been affected
• Our communications systems will reroute calls to areas not affected so that there is no delay in customers’ orders reaching BCHS
• We have removed sanitiser lines off our website so they cannot be taken by non-existing customers
• Further updates will be issued as and when required including details of escalation or reduction of any current measures in place

Supplier communications

• Contact has been made all major UK and international suppliers/manufacturers to secure priority status to ensure a continuation of stock
• Back up suppliers/manufacturers for key supplies have been put in place to avoid out of stocks and extensive lead times
• Stocks and orders placed with our manufacturers are being monitored centrally by our purchasing team, supported by our stock controllers (locally based) to ensure we can provide a constant delivery service to all our customers
• Suppliers will be advised that limited face-to-face meetings will take place during the outbreak
• BCHS is sourcing alternative products to those currently available and these will be held at the National Distribution Centre allow access to all BCHS sites
• Further updates will be issued as and when required including details of when normal service levels have been resumed

Elements of our Business Continuity Plan of particular relevance to Coronavirus

• Through our national branch network, we have the capability to transfer stock internally across our network on a next-day basis if required
• Key contingency agreements in place with third-party logistics solutions for order fulfilment if required
• Our uniformed branch network is linked through one ERP system giving us operational capacity to execute all customer deliveries
• Outsourced servers to the Cloud for protection from all eventualities. The servers are hosted in a Primary and Backup server configuration housed in separate geographic locations. The Primary and Secondary servers are live linked and continuously backup between each other. Therefore, in the unlikely scenario of one Primary server failing the Secondary server automatically takes over, using live real-time data
• BCHS employs over 430 members of full-time and part-time staff and maintains long-standing relationships with local temporary staff agencies in order to fill any short term vacancies
• BCHS Buddy system allows key roles to be fulfilled at all times and for key functions to continue
• BCHS is part of the wider group Bunzl UK & Ireland, allowing the ability to tap into the infrastructure wider resources if required

On The Tools is a creative social media marketing agency boasting the largest online construction-based community in the UK, currently standing at over 2.5 million so Metabo were delighted when they found out they had been nominated for Power tool brand of the year at their upcoming awards ceremony.

The evening event sponsored by Jewson is put together to celebrate and reward construction workers, sub-contractors, tools and equipment manufacturers and construction companies from across the UK. 

The evening started with a drink’s reception, followed by a fantastic 3 course meal and entertainment came in the form of funny man Justin Moorhouse, Comedian/actor as seen on Live At The Apollo, Peter Kay’s Phoenix Nights, 8 Out of 10 cats, Alan Davis and Coronation Street.

TIMco, one of the UK’s largest independent suppliers of screws, fasteners, fixings and power tool accessories, has further developed its innovative TIMbag packaging to aid with product selection and to support merchants with improved merchandising opportunities.

The TIMbag, made from a durable polymer, has been specifically designed and presented to give strong visual impact, durability, and simple identification of products. The TIMbag is portable, re-sealable, tamper proof and convenient for site and since its launch in 2012 has sold 275 million units.

The easy to carry TIMbag packaging now has more product information including; sizes, dimensions, strength and corrosion ratings as well as user guides and the best applications for each of the products.  The bags are now each colour coded for easy selection while barcoding helps the retailer to manage their stock effectively and ensure availability of popular lines. 

Simon Midwood, Managing Director of TIMco comments: “We’re excited to reveal the new and improved TIMbag that at a glance provides easy to digest information to support merchants and end users with selecting the right products for each job.  By also increasing the range of products available in TIMbags, we aim to further develop our strategy of becoming a ‘one-stop shop’ for builder’s merchants.”

For more information on the new ranges available or to find your nearest TIMco stockist, visit: www.TIMco.co.uk.

TIMco is headquartered in Nantwich, Cheshire and imports and supplies more than 6,500 product lines from around the world to distributors throughout the UK, Ireland and Europe.  The company was established in 1972 and now employs 137+ members of staff from its offices in the UK, Ireland and Taiwan.  For more information, visit www.timco.co.uk. 

TIMco, one of the UK’s largest, independent and fastest-growing wholesalers to the construction industry, is supporting its local community by partnering with Bees In Our Community – a bee conservation organisation based in Northwich and operating throughout Cheshire. The partnership is part of the company’s strategy to build a sustainable business and support the communities in which it trades.

Bees In Our Community was set up in 2016 as a not-for-profit social enterprise to offer a free ongoing ‘loan’ of beehives and honeybees to homeowners, landowners and farmers with many hives being located close to TIMco’s Headquarters and Warehouse in Nantwich, Cheshire.

The aim is to get to 300+ hives into the local community. The bees are all locally bred and raised and are of the native (Apis Mellifera Mellifera) strain. The native bees make best use of the variable weather and forage that Cheshire experiences and play a vital role in pollination, with an estimated one-third of all foods consumed each day relying on pollination by bees.

The hives are too expensive to buy new so they are hand made from locally sourced and recycled wood which requires a large volume of screws and glue in their assembly.  To support the charity’s endeavours, TIMco has initially donated over 25,000 items of their screw stock (as per Bees In Our Community requirements) to the cause, as well as supplying wood for the construction of the hives. TIMco is looking to pledge further donations to the organisation throughout the coming year.

TIMco has committed to supply the charity with all their fixing needs to achieve their targets. They have also contributed to the re-design of the hives so that they can be made from timber originally used in pallets. This mutually beneficial opportunity has reduced the amount of timber being recycled and reduced the material cost to zero.

Simon Midwood, Managing Director of TIMco, comments: “We are excited to be supporting local initiatives such as Bees in Our Community and to be helping them with such a positive initiative. As a ‘Founding Sponsor’, we look forward to continuing to support the organisation’s outstanding work and to help make a positive environmental impact within our local community. In the future, we hope to have some hives on TIMco’s land in order to bring our support for this cause to life.”

Karl Colyer of Bees In Our Community was delighted with the support given by TIMco: “As a not-for-profit business, every penny counts and is directed towards helping honeybees. The very generous supply of screws and several van loads of wood has really helped us provide quality hives for the bees.”

This timely support follows hot on the heels of the city of Chester’s aim to become the most bee-friendly city in the country by running a #BEEfriendlyChester campaign to educate and encouraging Chester to ‘bee-friendly’. The Grosvenor Shopping Centre will be hosting events from July 27 to September 1, including live hive workshops, scuttlebee kids play zone, fun activities, bee flower seed giveaways, local honey sellers and education demonstrations.

Further information regarding the work carried out by Bees In Our Community can be found on their website at www.beesinourcommunity.org.uk   

Product coming to the UK for the first time

TIMco, one of the UK’s largest, independent and fastest growing wholesale suppliers to the construction industry, has been appointed as the exclusive supplier of GOOP, America’s number one multi-purpose hand cleaner since 1949. GOOP will be coming to the UK for the first time through TIMco later this month.

GOOP is a “waterless” hand cleaner that quickly and safely removes grease, paint, ink, tar, industrial soils and can also be used to clean tools. The non-toxic and bio-degradable product is made from the highest quality, premium ingredients and is specially formulated with natural moisturisers to leave your hands clean and soft. Original GOOP, with pumice to give it a more abrasive, cleaning power, is available in a range of sizes for a variety of applications.

The GOOP range also includes a citrus infused ‘Orange GOOP’.  The Orange GOOP uses all natural citrus cleaners to remove the toughest of soils, with no harsh chemicals or solvents.  The product is available in multiple sizes, with fine pumice scrubbers to help remove those extra tough stains.

The partnership is a further illustration of how TIMco is extending its Site Protection range to reflect the company’s commitment to safety in construction, as well as delivering on the company’s strategy of becoming a ‘one stop shop’ for builders’ merchants.  The new GOOP products follow last year’s launch of first aid kits which include a selection of workplace and vehicle first aid kits, as well as a heavy bleed and burns kit. The range also includes an eye care kit, heavy duty plasters and an accident book.

Simon Midwood, Managing Director of TIMco, comments: “We’re proud to have been selected as the exclusive supplier of GOOP in the UK.  It’s a hugely popular and proven product that fits very well with our rapidly expanding range.  We’re excited to be bringing the product to the UK and believe it will be well received by both merchants and end users.”

We recognise that consistency of delivery is very important for many of our customers who already purchase Paslode branded nail guns and so we’re delighted to be offering them the option to purchase Paslode branded nails and fuel cells along with our growing FirmaHold range. A huge advantage of the advantage of buying Paslode from TIMco is that one box can just be ordered.

TIMco, one of the UK’s largest independent wholesale suppliers of screws, fixings and power tools accessories, has extended their offering of site protection products in the SHIELD range due to high customer demand and to strengthen their position as the ‘one stop shop’ for builder’s merchants.

Managing Director of TIMco, Simon Midwood comments: “Over the past year, we have seen an increased demand for protective products for use on construction sites and for renovators and that’s why we decided to extend our renowned SHIELD range. Extending this range demonstrates how TIMco are meeting demands and becoming a ‘one stop shop’ for builder’s merchants.”

The existing range includes, glass, carpet and hard floor films, designed to prevent common trips and slips and have now added polythene dust sheets to the range as well as cling sheets which cling to surfaces without the need for tape or adhesives. The static sheets attract dust and over-spray, providing protection during decorating and renovation works, especially over difficult to cover objects like fixed cabinets.

The new range also includes general purpose builder’s sheets to provide waterproof protection of materials, plastic cutters to custom cut sheets with tricky dimensions and to avoid wastage, as well as a protective zipper door which provides a transparent, concealed entrance to work areas and strong, durable rubble sacks to help keep work areas clear, to avoid accidents occurring.

For helping to keep things tidy on site and to further avoid mishaps during renovations at home, TIMco have also introduced two types of rubble sacks into the SHIELD range: Heavy duty rubble sacks – manufactured from strong, durable and tear resistant woven polypropylene, reusable sacks available in two sizes which have drawstring tops to keep the rubble secure and the rubble sack rolls of 30 sacks manufactured from recycled polyethylene for general waste on building sites and landscaping work.

There are also cleaning aids included in the SHIELD range such as the Heavy-Duty builders wipes: textured wipes to help remove paint, glue, adhesives, PU foam, silicone, sealants, fuel, oil and the stockinette roll, designed for cleaning oily machinery.

To complete the all-encompassing protection range, TIMco extended the range to include heavy and light duty laminated tarpaulins. Both are water resistant and feature UV protection to withstand outdoor conditions and come with rust resistant aluminium eyelets with reinforced edges, to help tie down the tarpaulin for extra protection. The heavy-duty tarpaulin also has corner eyelets for maximum coverage as well as top tear strength which competes with standard tarpaulins, making them an ideal product for protecting outdoor building projects.

TIMco is head quartered in Nantwich, Cheshire and imports and supplies more than 6,000 product lines from around the world to distributors throughout the UK, Ireland and Europe.  The company was established in 1970 and now employs 115 members of staff from its offices in the UK, Ireland and Taiwan.  For more information, visit www.TIMco.co.uk.

TIMco, one of the UK’s largest independent wholesale suppliers of screws, fixings, ironmongery and power tools accessories, has introduced the new innovative Ram Board Range, which will sit as part of their existing SHIELD range. The range will be dual branded as TIMco SHIELD Ram Board. TIMco has been awarded exclusivity to distribute Ram Board throughout the UK to independent builders merchants.

The Ram Board heavy-duty, temporary floor protection is engineered for contractors. It has been designed with both cost and efficiency in mind, lays out quickly and easily and is also re-usable and recyclable. It is also made from recycled material. Ram Board is non-staining and utilises its exclusive Flex-Fiber & Spill Guard technologies allowing for the curing of new floors on job-sites while resisting water, paint, mud and more. It also helps contractors looking to protect new or existing concrete, wood, tile, stone, linoleum, vinyl composition tile, epoxy and most other floor types, and supports waste packaging on sites.

Launching alongside the heavy duty floor protection will also be a selection of accompanying products; the first of which is a Seam Tape. With a generous width of 3 inches, the tape has plenty of allowance for joining the heavy-duty floor protection seams. The Kraft backing also makes it easy to tear off and install as well as making the product recyclable. Another product launching within the Ram Board range is the Multi-Cutter, used for the safe and accurate cutting of Ram Boards during fitting. The concealed integral blade reduces risk of personal injury and prevents damage to the surface being protected beneath the Ram Boards. Protecting door frames has become an essential part of renovating, moving and even new construction, and so the third product to launch alongside this collection is Ram Jamb – a heavy-duty door frame protector. Ram Board’s door frame protection is flexible and re-usable, with no tape or adhesive necessary.

Sales Director of TIMco, Simon Rance comments: “Over recent months, we have seen an increased demand for protective products for use on construction sites and for renovators and that’s why we decided to extend our SHIELD range by introducing the innovative Ram Board. This product is both easy to use and re-usable, making it a very cost-effective solution for construction sites. We are confident it will be a popular addition to our SHIELD range. We look forward to building our relationship with Ram Board and growing the TIMco SHIELD Ram Board brand.”

Ram Board is now available to purchase and features in TIMco’s 2018/19 catalogue.

The Show Must Go On…

­

We are pleased to announce that our famous Troy THS annual show, recently postponed due to the COVID-19 virus, has now been rearranged for Thursday 22^nd October 2020 at Silverstone; with guest speaker Brad Sugars, confirmed as taking the stage the evening before the show (Wednesday 21^st October), sharing his secrets of success in business.

We will be getting in touch
with our Members and Suppliers with more details in due course.

Dear Customer,

I am writing to inform you that, regrettably, due to the impact of the Coronavirus outbreak we have had no choice but to temporarily close our UK distribution centres until further notice. The closures will take effect from close of business today, March 24th, 2020……..

Download the rest of the communication using the link below.

Good News – Toolbank have reopened with a limited service.

Following further clarification from the Government, Toolbank have now decided to operate a restricted service from some distribution centres in support of those customers who are supplying products to
companies and institutions which are critical in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.

Click here for the full statement 

We are pleased to advise that our central warehouse (TSS) has now been able to reopen and will provide a normal C Stock service to our UK customers with immediate effect.

Thank you very much for your patience and understanding whilst we have been re-organising our logistics to ensure we protect the health and wellbeing of our teams.

The health and safety of our team remains paramount and all those involved in processing customer orders will adhere to strict operating guidelines to ensure their safety as they carry out their work.

This means that we will be operating with a reduced team (to enable us to practice social distancing) which may extend delivery times in busy periods.

Whilst we will do everything we can to get your orders to you as soon as possible, we will not be able to offer our usual next day service, but we will endeavor to ensure that you receive all Toolbank deliveries within 48/72 hours from receipt of order.  

Due to the unique circumstances in which we are operating and the impact this has had on our normal transport facilities, we need to maintain a small minimum order value of £50.

It may also be possible to collect goods from our warehouses, but only by prior arrangement and subject to strict health and safety instructions that will be visible on site.

Due to reduced office staff numbers, we would ask you to help us by placing your orders through our B2B website (or other electronic method) or by email, if possible.

In addition to these services our sales management team remain available and can be contacted as below:

Thank you for your continued support and consideration.

We once again, wish you, your families and your business, well at this most difficult time.

Scott Thompson, National Account Manager at ToughBuilt provides a great introduction into the commercial opportunity, USPs and innovations Troy Members can access at ToughBuilt.
