Instantor-Discovery-Day-Low

Instantor Launches ‘Discovery Days’ at its State-of-the-art Testing Facility

Manufacturer of superior plumbing products, Instantor is welcoming installers to its brand new testing and training centre based in Santry, Dublin. Its first Discovery Day took place on 5th September 2024 with nine UK installers plus representatives from InstallerSHOW in attendance. Providing a unique insight into Instantor’s products, culture and values, as well as valuable training sessions, the Discovery Days are part of Instantor’s ongoing commitment to working in partnership with trade professionals.

The Discovery Days begin with a brief introduction to Instantor and the wider Sanbra Group, which Instantor is part of. Guests are then given a behind-the-scenes tour of the new visitor centre and testing lab to learn how products are designed, engineered and exhaustively tested.

Beyond this, installers are then able to get hands on with Instantor’s market-leading products with training sessions held by the experienced in-house team. This includes competency training on Instantor’s press fittings and multilayer Pex-Al-Pex pipe, plus its copper press systems for both gas and water applications. Upon completion of the training, the installers are presented with personalised competency ID cards.

Andy Burton, Divisional Marketing Manager – Heating & Plumbing Division, says: “We were delighted to welcome the group of installers to our first Discovery Day. Instantor recently completed a major research project to establish what installers really wanted from manufacturers. Product reliability and performance were two of the key findings and, with this in mind, we were determined to open our doors to show how Instantor excels and exceeds these requirements. Our facilities in Santry are truly world class and we want as many installers as possible to see and experience the core of our business.

“The testing lab gives us full control of our product development and testing process. Our test machines are comparable to those used in major independent UK and European test centres. Seeing is believing and the chance to show installers our rigorous testing process demonstrates the excellent reliability of our products, while the training sessions help installers to complete projects to the highest possible standards.”

In addition to learning about Instantor, the Discovery Days also provide installers with an insight into the innovative pumping solutions from Instantor’s sister company, Tucson Pumps.

Andy adds: “We aim to hold regular Discovery Days and will follow on from the success of our first. They will be invaluable in helping us build on our partnerships and support for installers even further.”
