Builders Merchants Journal – BMJ Publishing to Builders Merchants and the UK merchanting industry for more than 95 years
Hultafors Tools has teamed up with Band of Builders, with the help of Toolbank and Jewson, to launch a special edition version of its Dry Marker, available in over 300 Jewson branches nationwide.
For every marker sold, 50p goes straight to Band of Builders – a charity dedicated to supporting tradespeople and their families going through tough times.
Hultafors is kicking off the collaboration with a £9,750 donation and is committed to raising both money and awareness for Band of Builders.
“Band of Builders does incredible work for tradespeople facing illness, injury, or hardship; a community of people that are often overlooked,” says Nicki Hickman, marketing manager Hardware UK at Hultafors Group UK. “The Dry Marker was the obvious choice, as it’s always in demand on-site. Now every time you purchase one, you’re helping someone in the trade get back on their feet.”
Since its launch in 2016, Band of Builders has delivered nearly £2 million in community projects across the UK, powered by a network of volunteers and industry partners.
“This partnership means a lot to us at Band of Builders. The new Dry Marker is more than just a useful tool – it represents real support for construction workers going through tough times,” says Gavin Crane, CEO of Band of Builders. “We’re proud to put our name on something that’s made for tradespeople and backed by people who care about the trade.”
