Klober supports young roofers
Roofing and ventilation component manufacturer, Klober has donated materials to a number of colleges nationwide as part of its commitment to supporting the next generation of roofing professionals.
Several colleges in Scotland and the South West of England received a wide variety of materials, which will be used by students in practical training sessions to help provide invaluable hands-on installation experience, which is replicated on lifelike roofing rigs. Klober has also supported the colleges with dedicated CPD classes, designed to enhance the students’ abilities. Covering topics like the elimination of condensation, the sessions have helped to reflect real life applications
of products, as well as covering safety and the importance of maintaining best practice at all times.
Klober managing director Stuart Stockley, said: “Closing the skills gap by attracting and nurturing new talent is the responsibility of not only educators but also the wider construction industry. This includes manufacturers who can add real value to learning, through technical help and product support. Donating Klober products is one way we are committed to supporting the next generation of roofing professionals.
