Instantor has increased the availability of its market-leading press solutions by partnering with AE Spink Ltd., known in the trade as Spinks. Established in 1926, the same year as Instantor, Spinks is a family-run business that operates four plumbing and heating branches, two building supplies and brick centres, three bathroom showrooms, and a dedicated renewables centre.
Spinks now stocks the Instantor Press System, as part of Instantor’s PHG Group partnership. The Instantor Press System is designed to be a quick and easy solution for plumbing projects, on any scale, by removing the need for heating and plumbing engineers to use heat-based methods such as soldering. Using a press tool, the installer simply crimps the fitting securely on to the pipe in three easy steps: cut, calibrate and press. The Instantor Press System delivers quality assured, fit and forget installations backed by guarantees of up to 50 years.
What’s more, Instantor has recently incorporated Leak Before Press (LBP) technology into Press System fittings as standard. LBP technology provides a smart, fail-safe feature and peace of mind on every job. In water-based applications, LBP fittings are designed to visibly leak under low pressure if they haven’t been pressed. This creates an immediate visual alert, allowing installers to identify and correct any missed fittings before leaving the site. In addition, the fittings are built to last with CW617N brass bodies and 304 stainless steel sleeves, delivering tight, secure, leak-free seals every time. Fittings are also compliant with WRAS, KIWA and NSAI approval and are EPD verified.
Paul Irwin, Purchasing Director, Spinks, explains: “We pride ourselves on offering customers quality assured products underpinned by excellent service. Like Instantor, we are a family business that is celebrating our 100th year in business in 2026. The Instantor Press System is another quality addition to our range and we are looking forward to working with the Instantor team to provide our customers with reliable products backed by a century of expertise.”
Dan Wild, UK Sales Director, Instantor, adds: “We’re thrilled to have expanded the availability of our Instantor Press System via Spinks. Our Leak Before Press technology, and a 50 year warranty, means that the system can be sold, specified and installed with confidence. At Instantor, we place a strong emphasis on compliance-led design and installer education, and we look forward to working with Spinks and their customers to enable them to take full advantage of press solutions, while maintaining high standards of workmanship.”
