Product Sourcing
We routinely deal with purchasers from specialist procurement companies and distributors, end user businesses, schools and colleges, local and national governmental entities etc. We have helped them to source countless products not routinely stocked by ourselves as well as variants of products we do stock.
The types and classes of products we have sourced for our clients are as varied as the clients themselves. Amongst other things, we have sourced video baluns for CCTV companies, webcams, specialised charging cables and numerous different types of protective iPad cases for schools and colleges, waterproof iPad and phone cases for a travel company, styluses and tethers to attach styluses to phone/tablet cases for local councils. We maintain offices and staff in Guangzhou, China which allows us to have direct, extensive and wide ranging links with countless manufacturers. Therefore we are able to go directly to manufacturers to source and customise products according to our customers specific requirements and we can do all this extremely rapidly; in a matter of days and weeks rather than weeks and months. If you have a requirement for large quantities of any product which we don’t stock or which you are having difficulty sourcing at a reasonable price then it is more likely than not that we will be able to source it for you at a price you are likely to find is unbeatable.
Customisation of Existing Products
Our direct and long standing relationships with our manufacturing partners allow us to easily customise any product we stock to the requirements of our clients. Customisations can be cosmetic involving colour changes or rebranding/logos etc to more material changes such as the addition or removal of parts/features. These are all things we cater for routinely.
Custom Made Solutions
Apart from sourcing new products or customising existing products for our clients we are also able to custom design and manufacture products to the exact requirements of our clients and are able to do so at a fraction of the cost and time which would normally be expended on such endeavours.
A team within the Metropolitan Police reached out to us with a requirement for a protective case for the Panasonic Toughbook CF-20 Mk2 devices they were rolling out to parts of the force. The Panasonic CF-20 is a highly specialised, ruggedized and toughened 2in1 style laptop. The screen can be completely separated from the rest of the unit and can be used separately like a standalone tablet.
The main requirement was not only for a highly protective and yet very lightweight case for the tablet portion of the device but also for a holster/holder which could be affixed into the front passenger footwell of police cars and into which the tablet (with one of our new cases on it) could be snugly stored when not in use. The holster therefore needed to have a suitable mounting mechanism so that it could be affixed into police cars.
These requirements could not be met by any off-the-shelf cases available on the market and therefore the Met Police wanted us to design, manufacture and deliver a custom solution which would be tailormade to meet all their requirements in the most cost effective manner. We set about deciding on the most suitable materials to produce a highly protective yet very lightweight case. Our extensive experience with protective cases led us to choose EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate) plastic as the most suitable material for the case as this material is extremely light and yet extremely shock absorbent too. We then spent around 2-3 weeks liaising with the Met Police team responsible for the roll out during which the physical design was tweaked till they deemed it was perfect for their needs. Once the design was locked it was sent off to our manufacturing partner for prototyping. The first prototype was with the Met Police team within another 3-4 weeks. The comprehensive legwork both we and the Met Police team had put in during the design/prototyping stage paid off as they gave us the go ahead for production straight after testing the prototype sample, without any major revisions needing to be made. The Met Police received their order of custom designed cases and holsters for their Panasonic Toughbook CF-20 Mk2’s within another 3-4 weeks of giving us the final order and they have been used, completely trouble free, in numerous police cars on the roads of London since 2022.
Logos & Rebranding
Sometimes clients have really loved one of our existing products but have simply required them with their own company branding/logo or even without any branding/logos whatsoever. We can very easily cater for both scenarios.
A specialist procurement company acting on behalf of British Airways tested out and really liked one of our heavy duty iPad cases. However they wanted all branding to be removed from the cases and packaging. We were able to quickly make the necessary modifications to remove the logos embossed onto the cases aswell as all the logos printed on the packaging etc and were able to fulfil thier order within just a few weeks.
