Cloggs Has Announced The Opening Of A New Flagship Retail Shoe Store In Birmingham

The new Midlands shoe store opened its doors in the Bull Ring Shopping Centre on September 12th, and marks a huge milestone for the company.

Until recently, Cloggs had concentrated on growing its business online. Now, the opening of the new store in the heart of the Bullring Shopping Centre will put it at the forefront of one of Europe’s largest shopping venues, alongside some of the UK’s largest brands.

Stocking all of the major brands Cloggs sells online in a state-of- the-art shop, retail customers are now able to buy UGG Boots, including all the latest must-have styles such as UGG Bailey Button and Cardy UGGs. Shoppers at the new Cloggs.co.uk Bullring store will also be able to purchase all the classic boot brands ready for the winter such as Dr Martens, Fitflop Boots and Timberland Boots.

Fans of Cloggs will also be pleased to know that the new Birmingham store is able to offer a pre-order service, next day delivery and touch screen terminals where they can view and interact with the Cloggs.co.uk website from the comfort of the shop.

Cloggs are also introducing a new MBT collection of boots and shoes, which can only be bought from the Bullring store. Commonly known by their slogan ‘The anti-shoe’, MBT is a healthy brand of footwear designed to stabilise the body by supporting the body and preventing joint and back pain.

Nick Thomas, Cloggs.co.uk Director, said:

“The opening of this flagship store is a landmark moment for us. We’ve been able to showcase our amazing selection of footwear brands in a retail environment, whereas we’ve always focused entirely on online sales before. It is a great opportunity for shoppers to get the best selection of brand-name footwear on the market at really competitive prices. In addition to all the top brands we sell, there are store exclusives such as the MBT collection and really handy pre-order and next day delivery services.”

At present the Bullring is the 10th largest shopping centre in the UK, just behind St David’s Centre in Cardiff and Liverpool One in Liverpool. Commercial activity in the Bullring dates back to the Middle Ages and – thanks to the 36.5 million visitors it attracted in its first year of opening – it’s one of the most important retail landmarks in the UK. 2000sq feet of this landmark now houses Cloggs.

Glowing Non-Slip Material Set to Save Lives and Prevent Injury

Negotiating a flight of stairs in the dark is the stuff of horror movies. Hands grapple for a railing, feet poke tentatively into the invisible abyss for the next step, and the mind struggles to push away the image of a terrible head over heels tumble to the bottom. Add moisture to that scenario and you’ll probably opt for the elevator.

But in a building emergency, the stairwell is the only option. Because of that possibility, the Federal Government has stepped in with strict specifications for photo luminescent usage. In 2008 alone, slip and falls cost the U.S. $36 Billion. Glow in the dark products provide effective illumination when the lights go out, but also provide highly visible indication in the light with their natural bright yellow color. When non-skid properties are added, safety is greatly enhanced.

FotoLum, a leading photo luminescent application developer and manufacturer, has developed non-slip solutions that in many cases exceed those Federal Regulations. Manufactured using 100% recycled materials and proprietary photo luminescent crystals, the FotoLum Glowing Non-Slip is presented in both an aluminum substrate and a tape version. The tape also uses a proprietary adhesive backing providing a superior bond to clean, solid surfaces.

Usage applications include: Public Building and Stadium Steps, Walkways, Boats, Marinas, Industrial Vehicles and more…

FotoLum is currently finalizing the details of an 8,000 step installation in the MidWest United States with other venues to follow in 2009 and 2010. Eventually, by Federal Law, all public venues will be required to utilize to have lighted steps for safety.

In a retro-fit application, the aluminum stair overlays are bonded to the steps with a proprietary, “green”-recognized adhesive; a high performance silyl-terminated, solvent free, UV resistant, moisture curing polyether (tri-polymer). It is a multi-purpose structural sealant designed for difficult bonding and sealing applications. The adhesive bonds aggressively to EPDM, PVC, BUR, coal tar, SBS modified bitumen, granulated APP, asphalt shingles, many types of coated metal, metal flashing details and window glass without emitting harmful fumes while curing.

Features and Benefits of the FotoLum Aluminum Glowing Non-Slip include:

. Photo luminescent epoxy charges in any natural or artificial light source and illuminates for hours
. Exceeds New York City Building Code Local Law 26 Chemical resistant and UV stable
. Meets A.D.A. Standards
. Ideal for new construction as well as replacement stairways
. Stair treads and flat plates can be anchored into cement, steel or wood surfaces during construction

Fotolum Glowing Non-Slip Tape can be applied almost anywhere:

Meets or exceeds the following Federal specifications: OSHA 1920.24 | MIL-L-3891 | MIL-S-17951C | MIL-W-17951C | MIL-W-5044C
. Clearly visible glow-in-the-dark material
. Safely identifies steps during power failure
. Non-toxic / Non-radioactive
. Rechargeable from any light source
. Easy to clean
. Long-wearing, mineral abrasive tread
. Meets OSHA requirements

Fotolum products carry a manufacturer’s warranty ranging from one to four years, with the life of some products exceeding 10 years.

Two-Hour Delivery Time Slot Avoids Need To Waste A Whole Day Waiting In

The customer comes first! The Co-operative Electrical gives its buyers the chance to choose which day they would like their appliance to be delivered on. This completely removes the hassle of waiting around for “approximate delivery days”.

This allows customers to work around their appointed delivery date, and helps make The Co-operative Electrical’s whole delivery service more efficient – because if a customer is expecting a delivery, staff don’t need to spend time confirming dates and times.

And The Co-operative Electrical even saves its customers’ time and energy once their delivery has arrived, as the delivery staff place the item into whichever room it is required, so that it is ready to be connected.

Then, to complete the job, they’ll even ‘do the green bit’ by taking away and recycling the customer’s packaging.

The Co-operative Electrical succeeds in delivering 98% of all orders within just two days of them being placed. Better still, this enhanced service is completely free. But it is now even better…

It’s a real bind having to wait in at home – even taking valuable time off work – to be there to take a delivery of say a new television or washing machine.

It works like this: a customer goes online to http://www.coopelectricalshop.co.uk, and chooses a product showing the ‘FREE Rapid Delivery’ icon. All the major kitchen appliances listed with Free Rapid Delivery are available from stock, so the customer chooses their delivery date and is then notified by either text message and/or email of the scheduled two-hour ‘window’ for their delivery. The email and text are usually sent by the time the customer gets home from work on the day before their scheduled delivery, giving them time to organise themselves and make any necessary arrangements.

New Fragrance Named ‘Love Etc’ Launched By The Body Shop

The fragrance has been created exclusively for The Body Shop by one of the world’s most talented perfumers, Dominique Ropion, who has worked with the world’s leading perfume brands, including Cacharel, Givenchy, Calvin Klein, assisting in the development of fragrances such as Armani ‘Code’, ‘Lovely’, ‘Dune’, ‘Euphoria’ and ‘Amarige’. Working closely with the Body Shop’s in-house team, Ropion created Love Etc which combines jasmine, vanilla, sandalwood and musk cream.

To gain greater insight into the generation of 20-30 year old women who most identify with the values behind ‘Love Etc’, The Body Shop also worked with respected socio-cultural trend expert Jolanta Bak.

“Perfume is a vehicle of dreams and aspirations – it conveys emotions, dreams, aspirations,” said Jolanta. “This fragrance appeals to women for whom ethical values are very important. They believe in justice, fairness and sharing, and they are less individualistic than previous generations.”

‘Love Etc’ is the very first Eau De Parfum to feature alcohol made from a fair trade and organic ingredients, grown in the foothills of the Andes, promoting environmental sustainability and biodiversity.

The launch of ‘Love Etc’ is supported by a new ‘Love Etc’ homepage which features video uploads of what people from around the globe expressing their views and opinions on love via the mediums of music, song and dance. Visitors to the ‘Love Etc’ homepage are also invited to send a love letter to a friend or loved one. The love letters can be sent direct or anonymously in order to share the love around the globe.

Customers are also invited in store to learn more about how the fragrance was created, with free samples of ‘Love Etc’ also be available in store. ‘Love Etc…’ will be available online and on the high street from September.

Reflective Pet Collars Saves Pets’ Lives

It has been calculated that currently there are somewhere on the order of 72 million dogs owned by Americans. Those faithful pups are outnumbered by 82 million domestic cats! So it is inevitable that at any given time thousands of pets are roaming free, having escaped their owners for some “exploring” time.

Tragically, many of those escaped pets end up wandering onto the road and unseen, get struck by motor vehicles. The main reason for these accidents are the pets’ lack of visibility to the drivers.

FotoLum – a leading developer of photo luminescent products and solutions – has developed a line of pet collars designed to provide that visibility in multiple modes. Designed, developed and manufactured in Lenexa, Kansas, the FotoLum GlowTie 3-Way Collar is a unique solution born from years of research and testing. It utilizes high-grade, proprietary, photo luminescent materials, proven 3M Scotchlite retro-reflective coating, and high-visibility nylon webbing resulting in pet collar safety performance unmatched in the industry.

As you might imagine, the FotoLum GlowTie 3-Way Collar creates visibility in three ways. The base material is made of high-visibility, 1,100 psi coated nylon webbing. Its bright fluorescent orange color is an eye-catcher. The matching orange 3M retro-reflective shines brightly when hit with light, such as that from a vehicle’s headlights while the glow in the dark photo luminescence glows brightly for hours after proper charging from a natural or artificial light source. Available in 21″, 23″ and 25″ lengths, the fluorescent orange leashes come with a standard paw print pattern, or can be customized with the consumer’s request. Properly charged, the dog collars illuminate, then indicate for up to 12 hours.

FotoLum has just released the GlowTie Cat Collar available in full glow or glow with silver tread-plate reflective. The cat collar utilizes a unique bright blue glow in the dark color which will glow for up to 8 hours when properly charged. Collars are one size, 12″ long, and can be trimmed to fit smaller cats.

These collars can also benefit the pet owners as well. Results from a survey conducted by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission from 2001-2006 revealed an astounding yearly average of 87,000 fall injuries associated with dogs and cats. Any pet owner knows that their pet shows love by staying close. Take a step without looking and before you know it, your feet are tangled up with Fido.FotoLum GlowTie 3-Way Collar increases indoor visibility through their superior glow in the dark performance and high-visibility design.

All Fotolum products are made in the USA and recharge over and over, lasting for 10 years or more.

The same material used in the FotoLum GlowTie 3-Way Collars is used on helmet and equipment patches implemented by the Fire Department of New York and many other fire departments across the nation, including Atlanta and Los Angeles, to which FotoLumsupplies.

Displaysense Has Been Carrying Out Big Changes To Its European Online Advertising Campaigns In Order To Meet The Demands Of Its International Customers

According to Displaysense, the UK’s leading supplier of display cabinets and mannequins, many companies are not tackling all of the issues surrounding international language barriers and could be missing out on business as a result.

Due to the success of the company’s European website Displaysense.com, Displaysense has been bombarded over recent months with more and more seemingly unusual enquiries for products, which has largely been due to poor translation and misunderstanding of products and their purpose.

The company’s sales team has faced strange requests over the past year, including a customer from France searching for a ‘naked female model’, when they meant mannequin, and a lady from Germany enquiring “if your Fach came with screws”, with ‘Fach’ meaning ‘shelf’ in German. They have also dealt with partial translations from European customers, such as the Polish customer who was looking for some cack stands, when they meant cake stands.

In order to better service their international customers and avoid further embarrassment to the Displaysense sales team, keyword translations are to be added to the website’s search tool. As in the example of the shelving unit, the search tool will direct foreign users who use such phrases or words to the correct product and provide the facility to pay in Euros rather than sterling.

Steve Whittle, the marketing manager at Displaysense commented: “This is only the start of our international “driving business forward” campaign, where we shall aim to optimise our European site to offer the best in customer search results and the products put before them. Eventually we would hope to offer domain specific sites that are fully translated, but that is some time off yet.”

With changes in global trade impacting upon all forms of businesses on a day to day basis, Displaysense has recognised that it is now more important than ever to ensure that communication barriers are broken down and businesses focus their strategies upon the wider world.

New Visible Brilliance By Elemis

British spa and skincare brand Elemis has launched the latest product in its skincare range: an innovative skin radiance booster suitable for all skin types and ages.

With the skin containing minerals that are important in maintaining a healthy glow, Visible Brilliance from Elemis aims to bring brightness and luminosity back to skin that has been damaged by environmental pollution and lifestyle stresses. This new skin radiance booster from Elemis actively targets the skin’s metabolism to brighten, lift and re-energise fatigued and stressed skin.

Harnessing the power of multi-minerals including Copper, Zinc and Magnesium combined with Red Seaweed, Swiss Garden Cress, Blonde Pea Protein and Dew Bean, it restores and repairs the skin for instant radiance.

Noella Gabriel, Director of Product and Treatment at Elemis, commented: “Everyone’s lifestyle manifests itself in different ways. As a result, today’s ‘modern skin’ reflects the signs of stress, pollution, medication and early menopause. The skin starts looking dull, lifeless and imbalanced. To restore radiance we wanted to develop a lightweight serum that is easily absorbed and power-packed with minerals and vitamins that are key to the improvement of skin function and cell renewal. With Visible Brilliance, customers will see an instant glow.”

Upon application in the morning and evening, users of the new serum will notice an iridescent gold and silver appearance, resulting in a translucent glow to the skin. When combined with Elemis’ Pro-Collagen Marine Cream, the serum also helps to create an ideal base for makeup application.

‘Board Brite’ Protective, Rechargeable Glow Strips Are A Hit With Boarders

One thing all skate boarders and long boarders can agree upon is the destructive damage caused to their decks from the inevitable “bail out”, crashing their board into a curb. A leading developer and manufacturer of photo luminescent products has solved that problem with an extremely cool side-effect. Board edges that glow brightly in the night – energy-free!

'Board Brite' Protective, Rechargeable Glow Strips Are A Hit With Boarders

Board Brite is created using military-grade, proprietary vinyl infused with rare earth photo luminescent crystals. It’s a process Board Brite’s parent company, Fotolum, has perfected for over a decade. The end result of this unusual combination of elements is a product that both protects and illuminates boards and boarding equipment. Backed with a superior 3M adhesive, the strips can be put nearly anywhere, giving the rider the power to customize boards accessories and safety equipment. In fact, the website states, “Use on decks, trucks, wheels, helmets, pads, gloves, skateboards, longboards, snowboards, surfboards, skimboards, kneeboards, skates, skis, and anything else you can think of!”

Prior to the introduction of Board Brite, boarders only protection alternatives were awkward nose and tail guards requiring invasive glues or screws. And illumination was limited to cutting holes in the board to install lights which also required the clutter of wires and the bulkiness of batteries. The self-adhesive 3M backing allows for a quick, clean application and it is waterproof which opens up applications for the water sports market.

The material used in the Board Brite is a variation of that used on helmet and equipment patches implemented by the Fire Department of New York and many other fire departments across the nation to which FotoLum supplies.

FotoLum also provided the photo luminescent vinyl used in shoes sold to help promote the August released movie G.I.Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

The company is involved in a broad range of industry applications ranging from photo luminescent, non-slip stair treads for public stadiums; to photo luminescent indoor and outdoor signage; to a variety of safety applications for home and business.

The company’s well-known After-Lite product which attaches to a compact fluorescent bulb is widely embraced by the “green” community for its energy-free emergency lighting capabilities.

Displaysense Is Introducing A New Range Of Hanging Body Form Busts After Significant Demand From Customers

During this recession, businesses are learning that they must adapt quickly as well as work smarter and more efficiently in order to make the most out of every pound. Such companies are hoping the strategy of supplying more to customers in the way of product choice and services will ensure they are leading the UK’s economic recovery.

Displaysense, the country’s leading supplier of display cabinets and leaflet holders believe they are doing their part in offering more to businesses and consumers by introducing more than 200 new products over the past month alone as well as offering more in the way of information to existing and prospective customers.

One such new product launch that is offering more to the companies customers is their new range of hanging body form busts. This range is a first for Displaysense who are now supplying value sale packs in the form of “mega deal” packs as standard across the range of busts that offers greater savings to customers.

The company has already received a number of enquiries for the mega deal packs of hanging busts throughout August, from a number of clothing retailers through to a paintball centre wanting to use the items for training and target practice, which has made the company think broader when it comes to promoting these products

Steve Whittle, the marketing manager at Displaysense, commented on this new wave of product launches by saying “We are incredibly proud of every new product that we introduce as we fully understand that in a market such as this we cannot afford to stand still for very long. We are hoping to launch further mega deal packs in the future that could offer even greater savings, which is a much needed considering the current fragile nature of the retail sector.”

Not only have the company been introducing new products on a regular basis, but Displaysense has also been improving its new website with a faster site search function, allowing for easier customer access to products such as business card holders and whiteboards. The business has also embraced customer self service as another area to improve efficiencies, with the introduction of service forms, so customers can make enquiries or raise issues at any time of the day.

With new customer feedback and returns processes also recently introduced by the company in a bid to aid their customers, proving that Displaysense is not only pushing the message of economic recovery, but are also far from going bust anytime soon.

Leading Online Jeweler Presents Modern Palladium Rings From Coge And ArtCarved

Titanium-Jewelry.com, a leading online retailer of men’s wedding bands, tungsten rings, titanium rings and unique contemporary jewelry, is proud to be at the forefront of the stylish and cost efficient precious metal palladium, with a full line of wedding, engagement and anniversary rings. An alternative to platinum with its strength and sophistication, palladium rings are priced comparable to white gold and serves as a bold and stylish choice for shoppers looking for a lasting choice in fine jewelry.

“In this economy, people are being more prudent with their dollar, looking for cost effective alternatives in every purchase,” said Ron Yates, founder, Titanium-Jewelry.com. “The jewelry market is no different and because of this we are pleased to bring a full line of Palladium wedding bands to our customers. At just one-third of the price of platinum, palladium makes a wonderful alternative boasting the same high quality and value, without breaking the bank.”

While many consumers look toward white gold as a cheaper alternative to platinum, many are not aware of some of the fundamental differences between the two precious metals. While platinum rings stand at a 95% purity level, white gold can only claim a purity level between 41%-75%. Also, because of the additions of coloring to white gold rings, fading and tarnishing can occur during the life span of the ring. Palladium, however, not only matches the strength of platinum, but also its 95% purity level and will not tarnish or fade like white gold. Unlike white gold it is also hypo-allergenic and, most importantly, at around a third of the price of platinum, it serves as one of the best metal values on the market. To learn more about palladium watch an informational clip, visit http://www.titanium-jewelry.com/palladium-wedding-bands-video-comparison.html.

Titaniun-Jewelry.com brings cutting edge designs to market offering affordability and stylish value to couples in search for unique rings and contemporary jewelry.

Halloween Safety Kit Introduced By Leading Photo Luminescent Product Developer

According to statistics, children are four times more likely to be injured on Halloween night than any other night of the year.

Each year, more than 650 children are hit and killed by cars while another 20,000 are injured. On Halloween that ratio rises dramatically.

This year FotoLum – a leading developer of photo luminescent products and Solutions – is offering an inexpensive, yet effective safety kit designed to increase children’s visibility without compromising their costumes. Fotolum products are far superior to novelty glow in the dark items. They are the result of years of research and testing on high-grade, proprietary, materials yielding photo luminescent performance unmatched in the industry.

The same material used in the FotoLum Halloween Safety Kit is used on helmet and equipment patches implemented by the Fire Department of New York and many other fire departments across the nation to which FotoLum supplies.

FotoLum also provided the photo luminescent vinyl used in shoes sold to help promote the August released movie G.I.Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

The company is involved in a broad range of industry applications ranging from photo luminescent, non-slip stair treads for public stadiums; to photo luminescent indoor and outdoor signage; to the boarding (skate board, long board, surf board, etc) market with its newly released board protection and illumination product – Board Brite.

The company’s well-known After-Lite product which attaches to a compact fluorescent bulb is widely embraced by the “green” community for its energy-free emergency lighting capabilities.
