  • So... let’s talk about the McAlpine A10. Proudly manufactured in the UK since 1957, the A10 is more than just a product – it's a testament to exceptional design and craftsmanship. Over the decades, there has been no need to change or rethink its functionality because it simply works. It's an original, built to last. What sets the McAlpine A10 apart? Uncompromised Quality: From its creation to today, every detail has been meticulously crafted to meet the highest standards. Proven Reliability: Decades of consistent performance have earned it the trust of installers and DIYers. Timeless Design: Why improve on perfection? The A10 remains as efficient and dependable now as it was in 1957. A true original. #MadeInBritain

  • Scale Defender 🤝 Customer We love hearing from a satisfied customer like this one, who recently had the McAlpine Scale Defender installed in their home to tackle hard water issues and limescale buildup. "The installation was straightforward and affordable. Within just a few days, I noticed a significant reduction in limescale on my shower screens, taps, and shower heads. Five months later, I’m thrilled with the results!" For a household of three, the customer only expects to replace the cartridge twice a year, enjoying low maintenance and lasting results. Have you installed or sold our Scale Defender and had any feedback from the customer, we would really like to know 👇 #HappyCustomer #McAlpineScaleDefender

  • The standout feature of the new McAlpine Super Strength gloves is their biodegradability. While a typical nitrile glove can take up to 200 years to break down in landfill, our gloves biodegrade by over 40% within just 2 years—a significant leap forward for sustainability, making them 198 years faster to decompose than standard nitrile gloves. For context, 100 boxes of standard nitrile gloves weigh around 70kg. By switching to McAlpine Super Strength Gloves, you can reduce landfill waste by at least 28kg in just two years. Packaged in boxes of 100, these gloves offer a sustainable solution to a growing environmental challenge, helping to prevent a problem that would otherwise only worsen. #ecofriendly #sustainable
