Frequently Asked Questions
Using Our Website
I can't find an item from my catalogue on the website?
You can use the product name or product code (underneath the product name in the catalogue) to search for an item in the search bar (top-right of the website above the navigation buttons). If you cannot find the product you are looking for, please make sure you do not have any filters set in the "refine your search" section that might be blocking the item you are looking for Alternatively, you could use the quick order feature, which allows you to enter product codes, select your sizes and add the items straight to your basket. If the item has been discontinued and sold out, you will not be able to find it on our website as the item has entirely sold out.
How do I find product codes?
If you have a copy of our catalogue, you can find the product codes for each item in a box near the product.
Immediately under the product name, you will see a code made up of two letters and three numbers. If it is a plain item, this is your full product code. For printed items, look underneath and you will see a list of product types with three-digit codes in front of them. Choose the product type and add this three- digit code to the end of the five-character code and you have your full product code eight-character product code (e.g. TR260600).
You can enter this code into the search bar to go straight to that product or enter it into the quick order form to quickly add it to your basket.
