Kelkay celebrating after ‘best ever’ Glee



Kelkay says Glee 2015 was its most successful show ever.

The aggregates market-leader generated huge interest as it presented 91 new products to garden centre buyers and gift retailers at the show. It also picked up the first runner up prize in the Best Landscaping & Construction category of the Glee New Products Awards 2015. 

The award was for Kelkay’s RHS Gardeners Collection, the only range of grits and sands endorsed by the Royal Horticulture Society. The judges were impressed with the versatility and breadth of options the range offers gardeners. The RHS Gardeners Collection can improve drainage and aeration, support aquatic planting and enhance rockery and Alpine gardens. It can also be mixed with composts for seed planting.

Reflecting on the show, Kelkay sales director Richard Pyrah said: “Glee 2015 was the best ever for Kelkay. We saw more visitors, generated more leads and wrote more business at the stand than we’ve done at any previous event. We put this down to continued new product development, great presentation and ongoing development of our talented and dedicated team.”

Kelkay’s Country Cottages collection of self-contained water features were another big hit. Oozing exquisite detail and exceptional quality, the collection comprises three models - Bramble, Old Mill and Tudor.

Other new launches included additions and innovations in the Borderstone® paving range. New Abbey 1.5m and Twist Circle 2.4m circular paving slabs are available in the bestselling Antique and York Gold colours and look great when laid as they come. Kelkay also offers a squaring off kit for the Abbey slabs to enable customers to personalise their design. Kelkay has also extended its popular Granite Cobble Mat Sets collection with a new granite mat quarter circle, complementing a range that has enjoyed great success since its launch last year. Exclusive Easy Edgings have also joined the Borderstone® range. These allow consumers to create curved or straight borders.

Kelkay’s essential water feature brands, easyfountain® and Henri®, have also been expanded. With recommended retail prices ranging from £29.99 to £2,499.99, the easyfountain® range provides a water feature for every budget. The brand new, exclusive products launched at Glee 2015 were designed and developed by Kelkay.

Glee 2015 visitors were the first to see six brand new designs in the Kelkay Henri® premium handcrafted water features range. Improvements across the range also saw lights included in three bestsellers in the range.

New pumps and lights further enhance the easyfountain® and Henri® products. Four new pumps, with capabilities of 450, 750, 1100 and 1500 litres per hour, are now available to power small and large water features. New light products include three easy to install low voltage kits, all providing 20,000 hours of usage. Each kit includes two, three or four LED light strings each with a 4-LED ring per string.

Also new to the Henri® brand is garden furniture in traditional hand crafted stone. The range includes two furniture sets. One comprises a table, bench and stool set, the other includes a high bar style table and stools.

Kelkay also launched its new path and patio cleaner at Glee 2015. A concentrate formula, it’s a powerful and fast-acting product that removes almost all stubborn stains.
