COMCORK SAILS INTO SYDNEY
Comcork WalkEasy White has made a grand appearance at the Sydney Opera House when it was selected
to be the flooring for a gallery within the giant complex.While called the Opera House the building of sails
is a lot more and acts as the venue for opera, ballet, drama, plays, musicals, and exhibitions.
General Manager Daniel DeDomenico
said that the Opera House installation
was one of a number of installations the
company had successfully tendered for
over the past six months.“The prestigious
nature of the job makes everyone pleased,
but we are also laying flooring in a number
of large installation, at Port Melbourne
Library; Melbourne Grammar School;
Woolworth’s trolley bays, and the QV
Building complex in Lonsdale Street
Melbourne, which is on the site of the
old Queen Victoria hospital, and which
will be a city within a city.
“Our first shipment for the USA has
left Australia, and with increased marketing
being done over there by our distributor
and ACL Marketing, we’re hoping a lot
more orders will be following.”
PHIL MAKES IT A DATE IN ROTORUA
The picturesque central North Island
tourist destination of Rotorua is also
the location of a Repco branch which is
particularly successful in selling ACL product.
Branch manager, Des Wenmoth, promotes
an annual trade sale/special day, featuring
the attendance of selected key suppliers, such
as ACL.
ACL General Manager Phil Anderson
was seen representing the ACL range, with
performance and heat shield a major focus.
Visiting apprentices were particularly interested
in development of the RACE range with
the new ‘H’ type bearings, and the increasing
possibility of a range of forged pistons.
The promotional part of the day began
at 3.00pm, finishing at 8.00pm, which ensured
that a trip to the geothermal splendours of
Rotorua were not purely ‘thermal relaxation’
for Phil.
