Back to school with style

At Duraweld, we think you could use our document boxes to bring an end to detention for your students.

 
Most schools in the UK are once again up and running, and those attending college or University are also set to return to their studies imminently. As the saying goes ‘new year, fresh start’ and if you are a head teacher, teacher,  lecturer or simply a parent why not think about helping your students in the upcoming academic year by purchasing and handing out document boxes to all your pupils?

We have  many popular products at Duraweld, but one of our most commonly purchased products is the document box. This is probably because they are extremely hard wearing, durable and can help store and protect most types of documentation. Below are a few examples of the kind of paperwork that would be best placed in one of our boxes. Buy them via the website or call the office for a box printed with your unique design. (more…)

Our national honour makes Yorkshire proud!

And I thought we were proud!  Yorkshire Forward has published a short article about our ‘honour’ of being listed amongst The Sunday Times top 60 Best Green Companies. It is great to have the recognition, and we’re content to be making Yorkshire proud. Read the article yourself at http://bit.ly/cm4urs.

 

We’ve always offered our customers recyceld vinyl on their ring binders - as standard. In 2008 we expanded the recycled range to include 100% recycled polypropylene made from our own offcuts and end-of-life customer returns.  This 100% recycled material is great for document boxes or economy ring binders. Buy online at www.duraweld.co.uk or call the office on 01723 584091 to speak to an expert.
