ITW Construction Products are a leading manufacturer of fixing, fastening and drilling systems for wood, steel and concrete applications, trading under two core brands: Paslode and Spit.

With their UK head office based locally in Crawley, West Sussex they offer the construction industry a wide range of products, primarily aimed at professional users, such as electricians, carpenters and dry liners.

Their 9000m2 warehouse storage capability in Crawley supplies a nationwide distribution network of national builder's merchants and independent fixings and power tools distributors. Supported by regional sales teams, ITW Construction Products' distributors are conveniently located, making it easy for their users to get the products they require quickly and easily.

They have a deep-seated reputation for providing cutting edge product and skill-based training and development programmes to their staff, their customers and more recently, in a partnership with Brighton & Hove Albion, to the community.

ITW Construction Products are extremely pleased and honoured to have become an Albion in the Community partner and look forward to continuing their work in the local community, providing comprehensive, bespoke programmes including training and work experience activities for the unemployed, for students or anyone motivated to seek advice or enhance their job-seeking skills and performance.

Andy Alexander, AITC's Education Development Manager, said, "This relationship started in July 2009 and ITW Construction Products are using their expertise to offer training services in interview techniques, IT workshops and a multitude of other subject areas.

"Over the course of the two-year sponsorship agreement, their staff will also train us so we can then educate people who come to our study support centres. This is an exciting initiative that will take us to the new Community Stadium, and hopefully beyond."
