Press Release: Record Power Relocate to Larger Premises

5th June 2013

Due to expansion, we are delighted to announce Record Power will be relocating to larger premises on 29th July 2013. 

This move marks an extremely positive time for the company as we work to develop the business, ensuring continued success and growth, even in the current economic climate.

Our new address from the 29th July 2013 will be:

Centenary House,
11 Midland Way,
Barlborough Links,
Chesterfield,
Derbyshire S43 4XA

Tel: 01246 571020

In the last 18 months we have had great success increasing our export sales and we are now dealing in over 30 countries with significant launches underway at the moment in markets as diverse as Australia and Germany, with plans for a North American launch later this year. Ever increasing demand in Europe in particular has driven the need for additional warehouse space and the new premises are almost double our current warehouse area, allowing room for expansion.

In addition we have increased our quality control and product development departments in the past two years, with all Startrite machines and larger Record Power machines getting individual pre-delivery inspections as well as general work to provide continual improvements in quality across both ranges. The new premises will allow an improved workshop area with much better layout and facilities to house both departments.

We believe we have reached a stage in our development where we can start to leverage the wealth of manufacturing experience and product knowledge within the company to increase our portfolio of UK manufactured products. In addition to progressing our plans to re-shore some of our current production, we are putting increased resource into product development and work is apace on the next generation of machines.

We would like customers to be aware that with immediate effect the current showroom is temporarily closed to allow for relocation of stock. The range of products on display in the new showroom will be limited for a short time after relocation, therefore if you wish to visit our new showroom please call and make an appointment so we can ensure your needs are catered for in advance.

Of course, a building by itself doesn’t make a company successful. The keys to continued and successful growth are our loyal customers whose continued support we are very grateful for, our network of knowledgeable dealers and our fantastic team, many of whom have been with the company over 25 years and some over 40 years. We are delighted all our current staff will be moving the short distance with us to the new premises, meaning we can continue to offer the quality, experience, support and expertise which are the cornerstones of the Record Power brand. This relocation gives us the facility to expand, improve, adapt and develop every facet of the business - we are extremely optimistic for the future and look forward to providing even better products and service.

In addition, the wide range of accessories and consumable can be bought and seen first-hand, from woodturning accessories and bandsaw blades to planer knives, scroll saw blades and much more.

Introducing the Best Value 12” Bandsaw on the Market - The Record Power BS12 12" Standard Bandsaw

3rd August 2012

 


 
The BS12 12" Standard Bandsaw is built to offer exceptional performance and value for money. Our brief was to create a machine that could compete in the entry level market whilst offering better features and performance than most of the competition and apply our 5 year guarantee with absolute confidence.
 
This machine offers all the features you may expect on a machine at this price, such as aluminium extrusions for fence, rail and mount, extruded alloy guide post, aluminium band wheels and an effective tensioning system. In addition, it also boasts a number of features that lift it well above the direct competition and which are a real bonus on a machine at such a modest cost, such as:
 
Easy access handles - The doors can be opened easily without the need for tools.
 
Easy-adjust guides - A superior design, similar to our premium bandsaw range.
 
Improved access - The large table insert makes access and adjustment very easy.
 
Steel rack & pinion trunnion - This type of trunnion allows one-handed operation, giving excellent support and accuracy.
 
With all these features and the capacities of a 12" bandsaw, the BS12 is a fantastic proposition. For full details, see the BS12 product page, visit your local stockist, or call us on 01246 561 520.

New Product - WG250 Wet Stone Sharpener

23rd July 2012

 

A wet stone sharpening system with a range of high quality jigs and accessories is essential for many woodworkers and is also an extremely useful tool for general household tasks, such as the sharpening of knives, gardening tools and many other items. The new WG250 Wet Stone Sharpener from Record Power is the result of research carried out with a number of renowned turners and woodworkers who looked at the other machines on the market and advised what they thought was needed to improve on what was available. There are a number of features that make this machine stand out from the competition - some small but significant details as well as some major points of difference to most of its rivals.
 
The WG250 comes complete with a generous number of essential accessories, including a straight-edge jig (ideal for plane blades and chisels), a stone grader, 12 mm diameter support arm, honing compound, angle finder (to determine the original angles of blades) and an angle setting gauge to ensure accurate application of the tool to the stone. In addition, a wide range of jigs are available to enable the sharpening of a large range of tools in the workshop and home.
 
The WG250 is currently available from only £279.99 and with the optional jigs starting at just £9.99, this complete sharpening system is extremely good value for money, particularly considering the excellent free 5 year guarantee offered.
 
Full details can be found here, from your nearest Record Power dealership and by calling Record Power on 01246 561 520.
