Leach’s partners with DeWalt to launch tools tailored for scaffolders

ADVERTISEMENT

Leach’s has announced a new partnership with power tool giant DeWalt aimed at developing products designed specifically for the scaffolding sector.

The collaboration will see exclusive scaffolder kits and impact wrenches tailored to industry needs made available through Leach’s. Both companies say the move is intended to deliver reliable, affordable and high-quality tools to scaffolders, addressing long-standing calls for equipment designed around the demands of the trade.

ScaffEx25 launch

The partnership will be formally highlighted at ScaffEx25, a two-day event taking place in Manchester on 11 and 12 September.

DeWalt will share stand space with Leach’s, where both companies plan to demonstrate the new scaffolding-focused kits and impact wrenches.

Organised by the NASC, ScaffEx has grown into one of the UK’s leading industry exhibitions, bringing together scaffolding contractors, suppliers and training providers under one roof.

The event will feature product showcases, live demonstrations and opportunities for scaffolders to trial equipment first-hand.

For many visitors, the Leach’s and DeWalt stand is expected to be a highlight, offering scaffolders a chance to see how one of the world’s biggest power tool brands is adapting its technology to meet the specific demands of their trade.

David Bezant, Head of Marketing at Leach’s, said: “DeWalt are a household name in the UK and when they approached us with a plan to invest into the scaffolding market, we were blown away by their commitment to find solutions that actually work for scaffolders.

We are excited to see where this partnership goes and how we can make the lives of scaffolders easier through great quality power tools.”

While scaffolders have long relied on adapting general construction tools for their work, this marks one of the first occasions a major power tool brand has invested directly in creating scaffolding-specific solutions.

Leach’s has positioned the partnership as part of its ongoing strategy to bring new technologies and solutions to the scaffolding sector, while DeWalt’s involvement signals growing recognition of scaffolding as a specialist trade in its own right.
