PRODUCT NEWS Small but mighty: Little Mixx
THE Preparation Group has proudly launched Little Mixx, a new forced action mixer that is compact in design yet produces big results.
Ian Hebblewhite, the company’s
specialist fi nishes manager said: “Our R&D department has been working on a new range of equipment with simplicity at the forefront. Little Mixx is made from steel, not fi bre glass, so is built to withstand knocks (and drops) for long life and continued use.
“With a mixing capacity of 15-30kg and an output of 600kg an hour, it will mix coatings (including resins and polyurethanes), levelling compounds, screeds, mortars and more. It’s ideal for small localised repairs where you’re mixing up a single unit, through to multiple batch mixing.
“The buckets, which are a standard size, can be quickly released to the runner, ready for mixing up the next batch. "The
ALMOST 50 people from Hirebase and Buildbase branches covered more than 1,000 miles for the companies’ chosen charity Cancer Research UK (CRUK).
The Hirebase “Two-wheel challenge” allowed teams of staff to choose any two- wheeled vehicle to complete 17 stages between Hirebase’s mostly northerly branch in Shetland to its most southerly in Exmouth.
By the time the fi nal stage was completed, the intrepid fundraisers had raised £17,595 for CRUK’s work with prostate cancer.
Among the most notable performances of the challenge was Falkirk’s Buildbase manager, Steven Clark, cycling a 94 mile- stage alone.
Rick Bauer, sales and commercial director at Hirebase, said: “On the fi nal stage of the challenge, we even paid a visit to the Cancer Research shop in Exmouth and there was quite a welcome party.
“Whether the weather was beautiful or raining, windy and cold, the teams were determined to complete the challenge and add to the money already raised for our charity.”
