This is a very exciting week here at PTS... We are moving premises!

As you can see above we currently work from several small warehouses on an industrial estate in Leyland, Preston. This means that our team are split up into different locations and replenishing stock for our despatch team to send to you means our warehouse team are in and out of different warehouses across the industrial estate - as you can imagine in the cold and wet this is not very nice at all! Plus, to ensure all orders received by 4:30 go out on time, our office staff have to go to a separate warehouse to help the despatch team get out our orders on time.

As we have expanded our product lines we have started to run out of space, so we started searching for larger office and warehouse space. We wanted somewhere where we had chance to grow and where all the team could be housed in one place together. Also we needed to ensure that the new premises was accessible to all our valuable team; we were adamant that we would only move to premises where the whole team could move with us.

We found the perfect spot just a few miles away from our current location. It is too big for us now but gives us the opportunity to grow, develop and store new products. Our suppliers are very happy too, as the new premises is in a very central and easy to get to location. The new premises will house us all together, are accessible to all our team, will enable us to offer a wider range of products to our customers and ensure that our customer service is enhanced.

I would like to apologise for any disruption to our usual service you might experience, please be assured we are working as hard as possible to make the move as streamlined as possible to avoid too much disruption to our service.

Timelines

• Our stock has already been moved to our new premises and put away.
• Our Despatch Team sucessfully moved on Thursday 4th April.
• Our Office Team, IT and phones have sucessfully moved on Friday 12th April.
• By Saturday 13^th April we will be in situe and our service will be back up to par.

Thank you to all our Customers for your patience and thank you to our team for all the hard work they are putting into making this move as smooth as possible.

NEW Search Facility

We’re excited to launch our new search facility which will allow you to search our largest two ranges, Stickers & Stampers.  

You can narrow down your search options by clicking on the word, subject, size, or a combination of them. For example if you wanted to look for all stickers which have the wording spelling you can!

We’ve been using this in the office for a few weeks now to give it a test and all the team have said “How did we manage without it”.  Which, is always good to hear about a new facility.

If you have any other suggestions of how we could make this better, please let us know by clicking here and completing the form.

You can try out the new search facility by clicking here.

Exciting times here at P.T.S. Not only have we introduced 2 new ranges of stamper but they are Carbon Neutral too! So, what is Carbon Neutral? We had to look it up as well, don't worry.

Climate change is one of the major challenges facing the global population and the natural environment. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions released into the atmosphere in ever rapidly growing volumes are recognised to be responsible for this change.

Carbon Footprint analysis and reduction are key to preventing this change by, for example, enhancing energy efficiency, mitigating carbon emissions by means of green energy and then compensating for remaining GHG emissions by investing in carbon offsets, with a final goal of being carbon neutral.
 

Making it better!

Here at PTS we've been making it better for you. Over the last few weeks we've been changing the layout of the details on our website regarding each product.  If you click on the image of any product you will be taken the the extended description, which will now look something like this:

We've made changes such as making the size and quantity of the product easier to see at a glance, let you know if it's available in a pack, which will save you money and put other useful links in.

These new extended descriptions we're sure you'll find helpful and informative.
