I AM delighted to be able to welcome you to a brand new decade and to ToolKit magazine.
ToolBUSINESS+HIRE has become a name renowned in the UK’s tool industry for quality, insight and trustworthiness, so it was no easy choice to rebrand. However, ultimately we decided that opening the target readership to include professional tradespeople and overhauling the publication’s digital presence was a significant enough step to warrant it.

I hope regular readers will be assured that they will find the same great-quality content that they have come to depend on us for – with a few new surprises too. For example, throughout 2020 we will be running ToolKit’s Great Tool Giveaway: a fabulous free prize draw giving every ToolKit subscriber the chance to win a fabulous piece of kit every publication month.
Peter Brett casts his expert eye on the January prize – the 18V brushless combi drill from JCB Tools – on Page 16. Elsewhere, Peter has been keeping himself warm and dry against the winter weather with Snickers’ latest workwear, as well as putting Hellberg’s ear protectors through their paces. See his reviews on pages 14 and 24 respectively.
