Scottish Decorators' Federation Annual
Convention
Artex recently exhibited at the Scottish Decorators'
Federation Convention 2009 at the Dunblane Hydro on the 26th - 28th
March. Attended by approximately 200 SDF members, the show
was a huge success and allowed Artex to continue to build on the
already strong relationships with SDF members. A big thanks goes
out to all those who visited the two Artex stands and the great
feedback received.
Contractors got a chance to see the entire range of Tetrion
products as well as take away samples of the key Homecare products
in the range. At the SpeedTape stand, there were SpeedTape PRO and
Power Sander PRO demonstrations and Artex unveiled their latest
innovation, the fantastic Gyproc Plasterboard patches.
During the show, a flyer and a banner were produced
advertising an incorrect SpeedTape PRO kit. Unfortunately, the
product was advertised at the wrong price. We would like to make
clear that the prices for the two SpeedTape Kits are as
follows:-
SpeedTape PRO Premium Set - £1,750*
SpeedTape PRO Premium Finishers' Set - £950*
*Available while stocks last.
Artex would like to apologise for any confusion that this may
have caused.

SpeedTape range or contact 0800 032 6345 for further
