the Diamond Gripper proving one of the company’s key sales successes for 2015.
Providing carpet installers with high quality grippers that return to the superiority of old, the Diamond Gripper features an increased number of pins across its length, providing better stability and improved hold. The extra width of the gripper also helps to prevent accidental damage to walls and skirting when nailing, making installation a less fussy proposition.
Known for delivering quality and value across one of the broadest selections of flooring accessories available in the UK, floorwise has seen growth in its gripper business, with products such as
Richard Bailey, Managing Director at floorwise , said: “The growth in our gripper business demonstrates that installers are returning to better quality grippers as they appreciate the advantages they bring.
“Nowadays, more and more carpet is available in five-metre widths, so it’s
important that the gripper can cope with the extra stresses and strains a wider carpet brings. The greater number of pins and nails on the Diamond Gripper makes it better for power stretching installations too, so it is the ideal product for any fitter’s toolkit.”
The Diamond Gripper is joined by the Premium Gripper collection, which provides installers with a versatile and value-driven range of gripper. Including options for wood and concrete floors, as well as stick-down options, the Premium Gripper collection comes in medium pin and long pin varieties. Both Diamond Gripper and Premium Gripper are available from floorwise stockists across the UK and Ireland.
