A TWO-WAY PARTNERSHIP
What We Look for in a Distributor Partner
We are looking for partners with a clear route to the construction market, relevant customer relationships and the commitment to develop edge protection as a long-term business.Are We a Good Fit?
You do not need to be an existing edge protection specialist. What matters more is whether your business has the local capability and customer access needed to develop the market.- An established presence in your local construction market
- Existing relationships with relevant professional customers
- B2B sales capability and willingness to develop technical product knowledge
- A long-term commitment to developing the edge protection category
What Makes a Strong Distributor Partner?
We typically consider the following factors when evaluating the potential for long-term distributor cooperation.| What We Look For | Why It Matters | What Good Looks Like |
|---|---|---|
| Local Market Presence | Customers need a partner that can communicate, follow up and provide local commercial support. | An established sales operation, local team, warehouse or active customer network |
| Relevant Customer Base | Edge protection is easier to develop when it fits naturally with the customers and products you already serve. | Relationships with contractors, rental companies, scaffolding, formwork, temporary works or construction safety customers |
| Sales & Technical Capability | Edge protection is a system-based product that often requires application understanding rather than price-only selling. | Professional B2B sales capability, project experience and willingness to develop product and application knowledge |
| Market Development Commitment | APAC can provide products, technical resources and support, but sustainable growth also requires active local development. | Customer outreach, local promotion, website development, stock planning or a defined market-growth plan |
