Making
jewellery requires a creative eye, a steady hand and a collection of intricate
tools. These specialist tools are not only intricate but made to very fine
tolerances for getting into, holding and shaping small and semi-precious
components – no plastic here then !
Jewellery files and
their intricate cutting profiles
Tools
for Jewels (.co.uk) know all about this as they are a specialist business
supplying amateur and professional jewellery makers with everything they need
for their hobby, craft or trade. But it’s a competitive market with saw blades,
frames, pliers, clamps, files, burnishers, hammers, tweezers and anvils (etc)
being equally available from a dozen or so similarly named websites /
suppliers.
So – Tools for Jewels decided they needed an edge and responded to Sinclair & Rush’s liberal invitation to ‘Think Plastic’.
Clear
plastic tubes from S&R’s VisiPak brand with distinctive caps were the
answer.
In
his own words, owner Clive Rumble explains: “We are using the Sinclair &
Rush clear plastic tubes and caps to market our files and saw blades, which
will give us a substantial marketing advantage over our competition. We are
designing and building a small stand to hold either the files or the saw blades
in one place for easy selection, making a feature of our products on the
jeweller’s bench.”
Protected and easy to
select
Brilliant
– not only are the files and blades protected in storage and transit, but the
display and safe, easy selection value is being developed as an end user
benefit too.
Jeweller’s
files need to be protected, especially if they are being carried from one place
to another. Such files tend to cost more than normal files and putting
them in clear, robust individual tubes protects them. With the exceptional
clarity of the VisiPak plastic tubes, it makes them easy to store and select
giving a much longer effective life to each file. The files no longer rub
against each other and they are no longer exposed to moisture and other
workshop contaminants.
Saw
blades come in 14 different sizes which soon get mixed up in a jewellers tool
box. Tools for Jewels will now supply their blades in individual clear plastic
tubing selectable by size and safe from work bench contamination.
The
VisiPak range of clear plastic packaging is extensive and varied with a
solution for all possible and even probable packaging, display and mailing
need.
Hang
it, store it, post it – and above all see it ‘clearly’.
The
diversity is enormous – shape, size, strength, flexibility, durability; and
branding technology offering silk screen; hot stamping, offset and pad
printing; with closures that flip, plug, hook, screw, shake; and shapes galore
including round, square, rectangular, triangular, oval; all in practical sizes small,
large, long, short; and everything available in colours to make even the
rainbows turn green with envy.

yourself the marketing edge … Think Plastic ~ Clive did !
