Echoes of Britpop battle as Glazing Summit and Glass Conference go head-to-head Two big glass industry events go head-to-head in the UK this autumn, bringing back memories of another great British duel: the Blur vs Oasis ‘Britpop’ battle of the 1990s. Whether it as confrontational as that encounter remains to be seen, but the second day of the Glass Conference on 17th October clashes with The Glazing Summit on the same day. Hosted at Edgbaston Stadium and Conference Centre in Birmingham, Glazing Summit anticipates a gathering of over 400 fenestration industry leaders and experts to hear about and discuss subjects including market updates, recycling, triple glazing, skills and mental health and well-being. Over at Telford International Centre, Glass and Glazing Federation FIT Show and FENSA Limited have partnered to deliver the inaugural Glass Conference . This will cover topics as diverse as sustainability, apprenticeships, innovation and building regulations. To update a well-worn saying, if you can remember the nineties, you weren’t there. For those of us that can remember, 14th August 1995 saw Blur and Oasis, two giants of the British rock movement known as Britpop, release singles on the same day. Hard to appreciate in hindsight, but this fuelled a media frenzy – not to mention a huge spike in sales – as fans had to decide which band to align with in the race to be top of the pops. Tempting as it is to refer to this October’s showdown as the ‘Britglass’ battle, that name has already been claimed by British Glass in their email addresses. So, which of these events will you attend? Who will win this battle? Of course, if they have the resources to do so, a company could send representatives to both events. This is what we are doing at Pilkington United Kingdom Limited to ensure we don’t miss out. (Spoiler alert: Blur won the Britpop battle, but arguably not the war 🎸 ) Tickets for the Glazing Summit can be purchased via the link below: https://lnkd.in/egYjRrs5 For the Glass Conference, tickets can be ordered via the link below: https://lnkd.in/e7ydt-CH #glass #glazing #glassconference24 #GlazingSummit #GS24 #Blur #Oasis #Britpop #Britglass

Understanding Upholstery Pricing: Beyond the Surface At Repinned, we believe in transparency when it comes to our pricing. Upholstery isn’t just about fabric and foam; it’s a science that balances supply, demand, quality, and value. 📈 Supply and Demand: The relationship between how much of our services we can provide and the demand from our customers influences our pricing. With a national shortage of skilled upholsterers, driven by retiring Boomers and a lack of trade schools, this balance is more critical than ever. 🔍 Quality Matters: We source the best materials and employ skilled artisans to ensure every piece is crafted to perfection. Higher quality materials and workmanship can affect pricing, but they guarantee lasting satisfaction. ⚖️ Equilibrium: We use established equations and market analysis to find the right balance in our pricing strategy. This means you’re not just paying for upholstery; you’re investing in expert craftsmanship and durable quality. 👷♂️ Investing in the Future: Our apprenticeship program is essential to address the skilled labor shortage. By training the next generation of upholsterers, we can keep our prices reasonable while serving more customers effectively. We’re committed to fair pricing that reflects the true value of our work. Let’s transform your vision into reality without any hidden costs! Ready to revamp your space? Contact us today!

Completed my 2 weeks Vocational Training at Rifle Factory Ishapore. I would like to express my deepest gratitude and appreciation to RFI for providing me with the opportunity to undergo my industrial training at their esteemed organization. I gained an overview of the manufacturing processes for various types of rifles and pistols, which are as follows: 1. Barrel Production : Steel blanks are drilled and rifled to create the barrel's spiral grooves. 2. Receiver Fabrication : The receiver, which houses the firing mechanism, is machined from a metal block. 3. Stock Creation : Wooden or synthetic materials are shaped into the rifle stock, which supports the barrel and receiver. 4. Assembly : The barrel, receiver, and stock are assembled, with components like the trigger and bolt added. 5. Finishing and Testing : The assembled rifle is finished with coatings for durability, then rigorously tested for accuracy and functionality. #connections #internship #mechanicalengineering
