Eco Insulate Enjoy Continued Success

Eco Insulate has enjoyed one of their busiest shows since first taking part in the Scottish Homebuilding and Renovating Show five years ago.

This year, the firm's new range of BASF WALLTITE products, which are suitable for both retrofit and new build applications, were well received.

The display provided a "touchy feely" experience where visitors could see first-hand both open and closed cell foams and discover the different ways in which these are used.

More than 7,500 visitors were in attendance over the two days of this show, with organisers saying their was a 7% increase on attendance numbers from last year.

Colin Davidson, Eco Insulate's Surveying and Estimating Manager, said: "Apart from half an hour at the start and end of each day we were busy right through the weekend. Many people told us they had to return to our stand to get the information they required as we were so busy.

"This was despite having three of our personnel available to discuss their projects. The number of enquiries taken was extremely high and in addition many people took our details and have since made contact via e-mail and telephone.

"Surveys have already been carried out with many more being arranged over the coming days."

He continued: "Whilst cost was a major consideration for visitors, they also looked for the re-assurance provided by Scotland's longest established open cell foam contractor.

"This, together with our membership of BUFCA, the industry's trade association and the availability of an Ofgem approved guarantee for BASF WALLTITE products, gave them confidence from knowing that they were dealing with a reputable contractor."
