Abertax at the KBB in London's Docklands in the Spring 2013-12-02

Anna Dulska and I were asked to represent Abertax and our Magnetic Valve at the KBB Fair in London earlier this year. On first arriving to set up the stand and looking around at other exhibitors and their stands we were not at all convinced that we had brought our products to the right Fair. There were very stylish Bathroom Fitters and gorgeous Kitchen Fitters and extremely stylish furniture, lighting and accessories for the perfect kitchen and bathroom. We were snuggled against one of the far walls of the exhibition next to a Chinese exhibitor showing bathroom cupboards, not of the above mentioned most stylish kind.

 Once the Fair opened its doors to the public we found to our massive surprise that plumbers, plumbers assistants that had come to the fair to find solutions and who in fact were disappointed to find largely stylish kitchen and bathroom furnishings were extremely relieved to find Anna and I showing a simple but most effective solution to every plumbers nightmare. A product for the toilet cistern and the header tank in a house were to plumbers annoyance, stuck float systems are and have been for ever a big problem. What they were telling us was that they are delighted to find a product that will give them a better insurance, that once fitted they would not have to deal with annoying re calls due to faulty systems.

Our Abertax Magnetic Valve, due to its ingenious simplicity, offers a reliable solution which the men on the ground, our good old fashioned plumbers are really appreciating.

I would like to mention that one person in particular told us that what made her come to our stall and have a closer look was the fact that two women were representing a technical product. She of course was an architect and knew about the problems of encased, unreliable water filling devices. It is encouraging to think that women on the ground actually draw the attention in such a positive way and I for one would like to see more of this! 

We have since heard from our UK representative of the Magnetic Valve, Joe Gregg , that as a direct result of the KBB Fair, sales of The Magnetic Valve have gone up on www.amazon.com and are being sold direct to plumbers!  Plumbers merchants in the UK are taking in our Abertax Magnetic Valve to sell to informed and knowing plumbers! What a success!
