Inta and Zilmet are demonstrating a commitment to the next generation of plumbers and installers by offering to supply colleges and training facilities in the UK with a trio of their best-selling products.
The companies, which share headquarters in Hixon, Staffordshire, are calling on training providers to get in touch in a bid to ensure newcomers to the trade are taught using high-quality and reliable products.
The training packs, which are valued at around £200 each, feature Zilmet’s internationally renowned expansion vessel with a sizing calculator and Inta’s bestselling Intamix and a 15mm pressure reducing valve. Also included are enough copies of its famed ‘Everything you need to know about anti-scald’ booklet for an entire cohort.
Cynthia Fisher, director at Inta, said: “We know the quality of training here in the UK is fantastic, but tightened budgets mean many trainees are learning the tricks of the trade on equipment that simply isn’t held in high esteem within the industry.
“It’s important that the next generation of plumbers and installers are able to recognise quality products, in order to provide the best - and most reliable - service for their customers. Building up a business and loyal customer base is difficult and the use of trustworthy products is essential in delivering a top-notch service.
Stuart Gizzi, director at Zilmet UK, added: “The Zilmet and Inta brands are known for manufacturing products that are not only easy to use, but perform better than any other market equivalent. We’re dedicated to supporting those entering the trade and feel they deserve access to quality, hardworking products from the get-go.”
