Flat Packs: Pre-Fab Clones or Tailor Made Homes?

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 08:32:17 -0400

For some, flat pack construction will always bring to mind pre-fabricated buildings that are as identical as they are uninspiring, but things are changing and new flat pack technology and improved quality in materials and manufacture are creating flat pack buildings quite unlike those seen before. Here, manufacturer of insulated panels and provider of turn-key flat pack home services SIP Direct ( http://www.structuralinsulatedpanels.co.uk/ ) looks at whether flat packs are always pre-fab clones or if they can be tailor made aspirational homes. Flat pack construction used to be reserved for temporary buildings where speed of erection and removal were far more important than quality or longevity. But the construction sector has changed just as much as the real estate market. More people than ever before are interested in self-build projects and an unreliable housing market has made people consider low-cost building options that they may previously have dismissed. Happily for these people, construction technology has changed just as much: structural insulated panels, like those from SIP Direct, are light yet completely air-tight; flexible yet strong; low-cost yet durable. **End Summary** Topics: Composite panels]]> flat pack house]]> flat pack home]]> house fl]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: Structural Insulated Panels Direct ( http://www.structuralinsulatedpanels.co.uk/ ) is represented by the digital marketing specialists and SEO provider Jumping Spider Media.

Make More of Your Childâs Play Time with Melissa and Doug Toys at DiscoverMe

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 08:31:39 -0400

Play time is precious, not simply because it’s fun but because it encourages bonding between parent and child and it helps the child to progress through vital developmental stages. Choosing the right toys can help you make more of your child’s play time, ensuring that fun, bonding and learning is taking place all at once: toys like those from Melissa and Doug available at DiscoverMe ( http://www.discovermetoys.co.uk/ ). Most parents understand the need to do more than just have fun when they’re playing with their children. They realise the importance of playing with educational toys which stimulate more than just smiles, but core skills that will help them navigate through their early years of development. That’s all well and good, but tell that to the kids! Play time will soon become boring for them if they are made to play with the same type of toys, no matter how inspiring they found them at first. That’s part of the appeal of Melissa and Doug educational toys. First, they don’t seem like educational toys, they just seem plain fun, and second, the range encompasses very different types of toys, from plush toys to wooden toys, puzzle games to sticker books…. **End Summary** Topics: Educational toys]]> wooden toys]]> childrens toys]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: DiscoverMe ( http://www.discovermetoys.co.uk/ ) is represented by the digital marketing specialists and SEO provider Jumping Spider Media.

Shoppers Across Europe âPanic Buyingâ Banned Light Bulbs

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 08:27:53 -0400

On 28th August 2010, the Telegraph newspaper reported that shoppers across Europe have been ‘panic buying’ the old-style 75W banned light bulbs before the EU ban comes into force. Last year, a similar rush was seen on the banned 100W style. The ban on these old style light bulbs has made it an offence to import or manufacture them, although light bulb retailers such as Ryness ( http://www.ryness.co.uk/ ) are free to sell the old styles while stocks last. Consumers have expressed concern over the ban because they feel the more energy efficient replacement light bulbs are over-priced and unattractive. Another area where the new replacement lightbulbs fall down is light quality, according to some consumers. Both 100W and 75W bulbs give a bright white light that is essential in some commercial uses, as well as domestic lighting situations where a lower wattage is simply not enough (reading areas, store cupboards, in chandeliers, etc. Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) use a fifth of the energy of a standard bulb, but the light is weaker and can flicker. Halogen lamps give off a more attractive warm light, however they often do not fit into old fashioned light fittings. **End Summary** Topics: Banned light bulbs]]> lightbulbs]]> light bulbs]]> domestic lighti]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: Ryness Lighting and Electrical ( http://www.ryness.co.uk/ ) is represented by the digital marketing specialists and SEO provider Jumping Spider Media.

What is FSC Certified Garden Furniture?

Wed, 15 Sep 2010 10:27:02 -0400

Leading garden furniture company Rawgarden ( http://www.rawgarden.co.uk/ ) prides itself on supplying only top quality garden furniture; furniture which is made from sustainable resources and FSC certified wherever possible. In fact just about all of its top selling products such as picnic tables and garden benches carry the FSC certification, but what does this actually mean? FSC stands for Forest Stewardship Council, a global non-profit organization which promotes the responsible management of the world’s forests. One of the primary ways it does this is by creating an independent certification system which allows consumers to choose furniture made from environmentally and socially responsible forestry. When consumers see the easily recognizable FSC tree logo on a garden bench, parasol or any piece of wooden furniture, they can be sure that its timber comes solely from well-managed forests that have met the stringent environmental and social standards set by the FSC. The forest that the timber comes from is certified by the FSC, but in the case of Chain of Custody (Coc) certification this also extends to the retailer of the furniture. **End Summary** Topics: Picnic tables]]> garden bench]]> parasol]]> garden furniture]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: Rawgarden ( http://www.rawgarden.co.uk/ ) is represented by the search engine advertising and digital marketing specialists Jumping Spider Media.

How to Make the Most Out of a Humble Garden Bench

Wed, 15 Sep 2010 10:26:25 -0400

A classic garden bench is just about the simplest piece of garden furniture you can get. But it can also be one of the most versatile when you use a little imagination. Leading online retailer of quality garden furniture Rawgarden ( http://www.rawgarden.co.uk/ ) tells you how to make the most out of a humble garden bench. Placement – consider where you place a garden bench as this could affect how much use you get out of it. Instead of thinking what the bench looks like in a certain part of the garden, think about what you can see from the bench. For instance, if you painstakingly tend to a flowerbed or vegetable patch, why not enjoy the fruits of your labour by placing a bench with a full view of the bed or patch – or indeed any favourite spot of the garden. Not only will this get you using your bench more, but you’ll also be getting the most out of the garden itself. Watch wildlife – well-placed benches can give you a front row seat for your very own back-garden wildlife show. **End Summary** Topics: Wooden bench]]> garden bench]]> bench]]> garden furniture]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: Rawgarden ( http://www.rawgarden.co.uk/ ) is represented by the search engine advertising and digital marketing specialists Jumping Spider Media.

Mani and Pedi Heaven Awaits with Kaeso Beauty Products

Wed, 15 Sep 2010 10:25:52 -0400

Manicures and pedicures are a staple of any beauty salon. The regular nature of these treatments makes them a core part of a salon’s trade, but competition is fierce. Clients are likely to be able to choose from a good number of local salons offering these treatments, so a successful salon has to set itself apart from the competition. One of the best ways to do this is to offer the ‘mani’ and ‘pedi’ heaven that awaits when using the Kaeso beauty range, as supplied by Professional Choice at http://www.prohairandbeauty.co.uk/. The Kaeso beauty range encompasses skincare products, massage products and manicure and pedicure products, but it is arguably best known (and respected) for the manicure and pedicure range. This extensive range, available from leading beauty and hair supplies company Professional Choice, includes everything a beauty therapist, manicurist or nail technician could need to provide an outstanding manicure or pedicure. There are nail buff creams, cuticle removers and cuticle massage creams; hand lotions, masks and scrubs; and foot sprays, soaks and heel rescue creams. One of the primary reasons the Kaeso beauty products are so popular among clients (and therefore salons!) is the fragrance. **End Summary** Topics: Kaeso Beauty]]> beauty supplies]]> beauty and hair supplies]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: Professional Choice ( http://www.prohairandbeauty.co.uk/ ) is represented by the search engine advertising and digital marketing specialists Jumping Spider Media.

Advantages of Using an External Company Secretary

Wed, 15 Sep 2010 10:25:22 -0400

A company secretary carries out a complex, multi-faceted and essential role within an organisation. It is therefore surprising that some companies still view this function as an ‘add-on’: a handful of tasks which can be passed to an existing company director to carry out (usually the finance director). In fact, there are many advantages of using an external company secretary, from avoidance of conflict of interest to ensuring legal compliance. Corporate and legal support firm London Registrars ( http://www.london-registrars.co.uk/ ) highlights the main advantages of outsourcing this important role. Company secretarial services can be seen as two-pronged: administrative and strategic. A company secretary will be called upon to carry out vital administrative responsibilities which ensure company compliance with statutory and regulatory obligations. They will also be required to take a more strategic role: advising the chairman, ensuring that non-executive directors are fully trained and compliant and providing an impartial viewpoint in board evaluations. It is in the strategic sphere of the company secretary role that the potential for conflict of interest lies. **End Summary** Topics: Corporate governance]]> company secretary]]> company secretarial]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: London Registrars ( http://www.london-registrars.co.uk/ ) is represented by the search engine advertising and digital marketing specialists Jumping Spider Media.

Educational Toys Have Never Been So Fun

Wed, 08 Sep 2010 11:21:36 -0400

While educational toys have always been vital to a child’s development, they have in the past been more focused on developing skills than on being fun and vibrant toys in their own right. This is no longer the case; in fact educational toys have never been so fun. DiscoverMe believes that the importance of developing children’s skills from the moment they are born does not mean that fun has no part to play. That’s why the company is committed to bringing its customers toys that educate and develop while being hugely fun for both baby and parent! Parents no longer have to choose between education and good old fashioned fun when it comes to their childrens toys. Not only is the toy market vast nowadays, offering far more choice than ever before, but toy manufacturers understand the demand from parents that their childrens toys educate as well as entertain. We understand far more than ever about the way children learn and the key developmental stages between birth and five years old. That knowledge has meant we now ask more of our children and baby toys, which has in turn made the toy companies raise their game to meet this demand. **End Summary** Topics: Baby toys]]> childrens toys]]> developmental stages]]> galt]]> lamaz]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: DiscoverMe ( http://www.discovermetoys.co.uk/ ) is represented by the digital marketing specialists and SEO provider Jumping Spider Media.

Just How âGreenâ Are SIPs?

Wed, 08 Sep 2010 11:21:02 -0400

In this environmentally-conscious age, we should all be looking for the ‘green’ (or environmentally friendly) option. When it comes to environmental credentials in construction, structural insulated panels (abbreviated to SIPS) come high on the list. But just how green are SIPS and what is it that makes them more environmental than traditional building practices? Leading SIPs supplier SIPs Direct ( http://www.structuralinsulatedpanels.co.uk/ ) explains the green side of SIPs. One of the main reasons that SIPs are better for than the environment than other building practices is their very components. Both the inner and outer panels are made out of oriented strand boards (OSB for short) which have impressive green credentials. The inner core of the composite panels , and what provides its inherent insulation, is polyurethane foam. Polyurethane foam is completely free of CFCs and HCFCs with zero ozone depletion, and both the foam core and the OSB can be completely recycled, making these foam panels incredibly green. Another green factor of SIPs is their manufacturing process. **End Summary** Topics: Composite panels]]> foam panels]]> insulated panels]]> building pa]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: Structural Insulated Panels Direct ( http://www.structuralinsulatedpanels.co.uk/ ) is represented by the digital marketing specialists and SEO provider Jumping Spider Media.

A Word on Woodturning Waste from The ToolPost

Wed, 08 Sep 2010 11:03:09 -0400

One of the UK’s premier suppliers of woodcarving and woodturning tools The ToolPost urges its customers ( http://www.toolpost.co.uk/ ), and indeed all woodcraftsmen and women, to think outside the box when approaching the common challenges they will come across when woodcarving or woodturning. Working with wood creates some unavoidable waste, but that’s no excuse for a turner or carver to become a wastrel. Throwing money at problems never solves them, as Peter Hemsley, proprietor of The ToolPost, explained in a piece originally published in Woodturning magazine. Given that Peter Hemsley is the owner of one the leading suppliers of woodturning and woodcarving tools, it’s surprising how often he advises people against purchasing tools! It’s not that he doesn’t believe in the quality of his stock, or denies the fact that the tools he sells are highly useful; it’s because there are some occasions when they are simply not required. As Hemsley himself puts it, “Supplying tools is my living but I was brought up in an age – and family – where waste was abhorred and was anyway not affordable. **End Summary** Topics: Woodturning tools]]> woodcarving tools]]> woodturning lathe]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: The ToolPost ( http://www.toolpost.co.uk/ ) is represented by the digital marketing specialists and SEO provider Jumping Spider Media.

Mortgage Loans for Foreigners Return to Bulgarian Banking Market

Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:58:36 -0400

Real estate in Bulgaria has been given a boost with the news that mortgage loans for foreign nationals (as well as Bulgarians working abroad) have returned to the Bulgarian banking market. House Sales Bulgaria ( http://www.housesalesbulgaria.com/ ) reports on the recent article in Bulgarian daily newspaper The Sofia Echo which states that these loans are back on the market due to “reviving demand, banks and credit consultants”. On July 13th, Bulgarian bank UniCredit Bulbank announced it had launched mortgages for foreigners and Bulgarians working abroad who could choose from a list of 22 Bulgarian real estate projects backed by the bank. This is an example of new requirements levied by some banks when offering these mortgages. Foreigners looking to buy Bulgarian property need not be disheartened by the thought of a lack of choice or sub-standard bank-funded projects. There is a wide choice of quality real estate projects which have bank funding, including some in Bulgaria’s key resorts*. The resorts in and around Sunny Beach continue to be in demand, two of which have seen particular interest from foreign purchasers: Aqua Dreams and Garden of Eden. Aqua Dreams is located between Sunny Beach and St. **End Summary** Topics: Aqua dreams]]> garden of eden]]> Bulgarian real estate]]> buy Bulg]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: The Worldwide Group and House Sales Bulgaria ( http://www.housesalesbulgaria.com/ ) is represented by the digital marketing specialists and SEO provider Jumping Spider Media.

Discover Autumnal Ireland in a Cosy Campervan

Wed, 08 Sep 2010 10:58:02 -0400

If you’ve ever been to Ireland in the summertime, you’ll know that at times it can feel as though the whole world had the same holiday idea. Like any popular holiday destination, the summertime is a particularly busy time for tourism in Ireland. However, visiting Ireland off-season can be just as enjoyable and have just as much to offer, particularly in the autumn. Here, leading rental company of motorhomes in Ireland (camping-cars Irlande) Celtic Campervans ( http://www.celticcampervans.com/ ) gives the main reasons it believes autumn to be an ideal time to discover Ireland. Save money It stands to reason that the cost of just about everything to do with a holiday costs more in high season: the good weather and long school summer holidays create the greatest demand. While Celtic Campervans can ensure that it won’t add on a ‘seasonal surcharge’ for no reason (you can get some outstanding deals on campervan hire in Ireland - camping-car location Irlande - through them in the summer months as well as the rest of the year), they can’t promise that the cost of other travel, accommodation and holiday-related costs won’t rise in peak season. **End Summary** Topics: motorhomes in Ireland]]> camping-cars Irlande]]> Motorhome renta]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: Celtic Campervans ( http://www.celticcampervans.com/ ) is represented by the digital marketing specialists and SEO provider Jumping Spider Media.

Make the Most Out of the Smallest Room in the House with Bathroom Lighting from Ryness.co.uk

Wed, 01 Sep 2010 08:42:36 -0400

The bathroom, or “the smallest room in the house”, is often the last room we think about in terms of décor. Even if our bathroom isn’t all that small, it’s usually lacking ambience, tending to be utilitarian and overlooked when it comes to style. There’s an easy way to make the most out of this room, however, and that’s with bathroom lighting. Get the lighting in your bathroom right and you can create the illusion of space as well as some much-needed warmth and ambience. Here, domestic lighting and electrical company Ryness ( http://www.ryness.co.uk ) shows you how. The average bathroom, however uninspiring, contains a mix of materials such as glass, porcelain and marble that are crying out to be well-lit. But over-do it and you can have a harsh, reflective and cold space. Studding the ceiling with downlighters or low-voltage spotlights will gently yet effectively light the whole space. You can find a wide selection of downlights and spotlights in the ‘Massive’ bathroom lighting range that are currently on special offer when you buy lighting online at Ryness.co.uk. **End Summary** Topics: Domestic lighting]]> bathroom lighting]]> buy lighting online]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Editorâs Note: Ryness Lighting and Electrical ( http://www.ryness.co.uk/lightbulbs/ ) is represented by the digital marketing specialists and SEO provider Jumping Spider Media.
