8 JANUARY 2014 PRO INSTALLER PRO NEWS www.proinstaller.co.uk BACK ON THE BOX WITH NEW ORANGERY STYLE Synseal is featuring on TV with a focussed advertising campaign promoting the lifestyle benefits of orangerystyle extensions. With potential to reach more than 28 million viewers, the 20-second commercial will be initially screened on the ITV4 and Home channels during January and February in time for the 2014 home improvement season. The ad, based on happy family scenes filmed in two large orangery-style conservatories to show how the welcome additional living space can be enjoyed both in the daytime and at night, will encourage viewers to visit the newlook Synseal Homeowner website, which is spe- ‘a great boost to brand awareness’ cially designed to provide leads to approved Synseal Registered Installers but, as Mark Schlotel, Head of Marketing, explained, this initiative will benefit all Synseal installers: “This ad presents orangeries and then clearly projects the Synseal name so it will give a great boost to brand awareness, and that is something all our installers can share – whether they fit conservatories or not. The adverts will be timed to start just after the Christmas holiday as people are then thinking about home improvements for next year, and the initial 2-month campaign may well be extended depending on the level of interest it generates.” Plastics firm in court after worker severs fingers in saw A Birmingham plastics firm has been fined after an employee had four fingers severed in a circular saw.
