VBH has recently taken delivery of a new stocking station from fastener specialist, Rapierstar.

VBH distributes Rapierstar fixing screws to its fabricator customers, primarily from its depot in Swansea.

As well as selling Rapierstar products, VBH says it is so impressed by the quality of the range that it uses the fasteners in its own workshop within VBH HQ in Gillingham, Kent.

Ross Childs, QC & accreditations manager at VBH, said:

“The team here uses Rapierstar products for pretty much everything that needs a fastener, from window and door samples that we produce for R&D purposes, to those that we send off for independent testing and accreditation. We also use them on windows and doors in our own showrooms and on samples, including display boards, that we produce for customers.

“It gives our fastener customers added reassurance to know that the screws that they purchase from VBH are the same ones that we deem good enough to, literally, hang our hardware on.”

Mark Calpin, sales manager at Rapierstar, said:

“We’re proud to have been the preferred fastener supply chain partner to VBH for 20 years. In that time, we’ve developed a deep understanding of VBH’s marketing-leading hardware solutions, meaning that we are ideally placed to advise on the best fastening solutions for each application throughout R&D and testing.

“But we also know that the VBH team fully understands the importance of selecting the right type of fasteners and the contribution high quality fasteners make to the success of their customers’ finished windows and doors. Their attention to detail is what keeps them at the forefront of the market.”
