Buy Roberts Radios UK

Harry Roberts and his associate Leslie Bidmead started their own company designing, manufacturing and selling “transportable audio receivers” in London UK in 1932. He steered a culture of innovation, excellence and service that was to ensure the success of the Roberts Radios brand for years to come. In just 3 years, the company was manufacturing 8 radios per week, a large number for the time.

Imaginative design coulped with unique manufacturing process meant that Roberts Radio captivated the World’s attention and Roberts Radio became a PLC (Private Limited Company) on 23rd April 1937.

It was in 1941 that Roberts Radio moved to new premises, the war time bombings had made it difficult for them to continue to work in their native London. After a move to Surrey, Harry Roberts, the company’s founder reveived pleasant news by way of a telephone call informing him of the news that he’d received his first Royal warrant. Her Majesty the Queen of England had purchased her very own Roberts Radio. It was the first of three Royal warrants for the company.

Innovation and development has resulted in the what we know now as the current spread of four distinct ranges combining traditional materials and skills with modern manufacturing process and cutting edge technology. The Roberts REVIVAL and also the CLASSIC ranges have hand made cabinets made from the finest wood from skilled craftsmen.

The LIFETIME collection offers high tech design within budget and the WORLD range of Roberts radios are sophisticated yet stylish receivers that allow you hear worldwide music, news and audio of interest, regardless of your present location.

New models in the range include the Roberts Robi the Roberts Sound 23 DAB CD System and the Roberts cath kidston radio.

Office Chairs and Castors Choice

I was asked by a client if I could find an office furniture solution to a problem they were having in their home office after they had bought some office screens from us. The type of flooring was allowing their office chairs to scoot about the floor. They were looking at using chair mats, which are not cheap, or very easing to the eye. The best solution for all was to fit braking castors or rubberised tyred castors to the leather office chairs.

The braking office chair castors ensure when the user sits on the chair it does not move. The only draw back with that is if you need to move slightly over to another area of your office desk you need to take your weight off the seat.

The rubberised castor have more grip than your standard plastic castor, and allows movement whilst sitting on the chair. These are as you can imagine most useful in the home office environment, due to the different surfaces we have in our houses.
