Carrier and Sandstedt Debuts New Web Strategy to Showcase Full Breadth of Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic Products
New Website from ThomasNet helps target new industries, reinforces company's capabilities beyond its flagship grating products
Chicago, IL-September 7, 2010-Carrier and Sandstedt, a manufacturer and distributor of fiberglass reinforced plastic products, has launched a new web strategy in partnership with ThomasNet's Web Solutions Group. The company's plastic products include floor gratings, piping systems, tanks, protective linings and equipment for a variety of industries including food and beverage processing facilities, chemical and power plants and pulp and paper businesses.
Carrier and Sandstedt is known for its molded gratings designed for easy maintenance - even in tough, corrosive environments. And, in some cases, non-slip gratings are used for pedestrian walkways - either way, ensuring worker safety.
For Carrier and Sandstedt's president, Steve Carrier, the new website represents an online strategy designed to expose the company's fuller breadth of products and materials. "An added bonus, said Mr. Carrier, "is our ability to use the site as a sales tool while we are on the phone with existing clients - to showcase everything we offer."
When plant managers or maintenance workers come to the website, they need to solve a problem and can see the gamut of options from gratings to linings and coatings, materials for tanks and valves, and mesh screens. Specifically, a user can:
o Browse through over 100 different categories or search by keyword, to evaluate everything from size, weight, material, resin type, surface material and more. In addition, they can compare up to five products at a time according to multiple attributes.
o Evaluate Carrier and Sandstedt's capabilities by downloading standard tables and information on material tolerances.
o View and download product images, specs and brochures.
o Submit Requests for Quotes, print pages, save to favorites, or email product information to a colleague.
