Hardware expert VBH has recently taken delivery of a new stocking station from
fastener specialist, Rapierstar.

VBH distributes Rapierstar fixing screws to its fabricator customers, primarily from its
depot in Swansea.

VBH advise that, not only do they sell Rapierstar products, but they are so impressed
by the quality of the range that they use the fasteners in their own workshop within
VBH HQ in Gillingham, Kent.

Ross Childs, QC & Accreditations Manager at VBH says, “The team here uses
Rapierstar products for pretty much everything that needs a fastener, from window
and door samples that we produce for R & D purposes, to those that we send off for
independent testing and accreditation. We also use them on windows and doors in
our own showrooms and on samples, including display boards, that we produce for
customers.

“It gives our fastener customers added reassurance to know that the screws that they
purchase from VBH are the same ones that we deem good enough to, literally, hang
our hardware on.”

VBH have a close relationship with Mark Calpin, Sales Manager at Rapierstar.
Speaking of his company’s relationship with VBH, Mark says, “We’re proud to have
been the preferred fastener supply chain partner to VBH for 20 years. In that time,
we’ve developed a deep understanding of VBH’s marketing-leading hardware
solutions, meaning that we are ideally placed to advise on the best fastening
solutions for each application throughout R&D and testing.

“But we also know that the VBH team fully understands the importance of selecting
the right type of fasteners and the contribution high quality fasteners make to the
success of their customers’ finished windows and doors. Their attention to detail is
what keeps them at the forefront of the market.”
