This new partnership with Fix Radio will help Toupret to fill a gap in the building and construction market with its top quality, fast working range of products for jointing and skimming plasterboard, encouraging them to switch to its Joint, Skim and Fill range once and for all.

Fix Radio is the perfect partner to help Toupret reach tradespeople in the building & construction sector with over 146,000 listeners per week across DAB and online channels.

The new deal includes sponsorship of Fix Radio’s top of the hour 60 second sports bulletins, which air 13 times a day on the hour. In addition, Toupret becomes headline sponsor of the Friday Sports Kick off show, presented by Andy Hodgson. 

 

The partnership includes a new spin on the Toupret 5KG challenge which proved extremely popular on the recent tours. Fix Radio presenters will each have a go at the Toupret Challenge, holding out 2 x 5kg bags of Toupret’s famous Joint, Skim & Fill for as long as possible. Their attempts will be captured on social media and the timings noted down and kept secret. Over 4 weeks, listeners will be able to guess which Fix Radio presenter achieved the longest time, on a special competition webpage. Then, at the end of 4 weeks, Andy will reveal which presenter won the Toupret Challenge.

 

All listeners who guess correctly go into a draw with the overall winner getting hold of the ultimate Match Ready bundle worth £1,000, so they can watch their favourite sporting events from the comfort of their living room with a Samsung 50” 4K TV and Sonos Ray soundbar as well as a Brewdog mixed beer delivery and a Just Eat gift card for getting the Take-away in.

 

Mark Squire, managing director at Toupret UK, said of the partnership, “What Carlsberg is to beer, Toupret is to fillers. We know how good they are and the purpose of the Fix Radio sports sponsorship is to promote Toupret’s class-leading product range, making them the number one choice for builders nationwide. We know our fillers are the best on the market and as such we are on a mission to change hearts and minds in the building and construction sector”.

The warmer weather is here and attention has turned to outdoor jobs as clients look to transform and refresh the exteriors of their properties. Toupret’s Tough Multi-Filler is a strong, versatile and practical product that every professional should have in their van.

Tough Multi-Filler is a hardworking, and multi-purpose product that can be used for filling, repair work and localised skimming on exterior substrates. It’s powder formulation allows it to be used for filling and shaping without depth limit, yet it provides a really smooth skim.

It is reinforced with fibres, which gives it excellent adhesion and the super tough properties that mean it performs brilliantly for all these applications. The fibres also make it suited to a wide range of exterior substrates including cement, concrete, breeze blocks, bricks, stone, glass and ceramics, whether new or renovated, painted or unpainted.

In spite of its toughness, Tough Multi-Filler is also surprisingly easy to smooth and to sand, and it has a working time of 40 minutes, making it the perfect all-round product for professional builders that need to deliver quality results, quickly.

Tough Multi-Filler is water vapour permeable, allowing the base substrate to breathe if it is overcoated with a water-based masonry paint.

Available in a 2kg box or 5kg and 10kg bag for even the largest of jobs.

Toupret currently offers the widest range of exterior fillers on the market with quality results guaranteed by high-performance products.

The exterior surfaces collection consists of fillers for outside substrates across filling, repairing, formwork, and skimming jobs. Each product is uniquely designed to target gaps, cracks, and damaged exterior walls and surfaces. The updated exterior collection now consists of six products in both ready mixed and powder options; Tough Multi-Filler, Masonry Repair Filler, Rock Solid Repair Filler, Skimcoat Filler, Ready To Use Skimcoat Filler, and Quick Fill, meaning there really is a Toupret product for every exterior filling or skimming job.

Toupret’s exterior surfaces products are available to purchase from trade distributors nationwide.

Toupret’s professional interior and exterior Quick Fill products offer a fast one coat repair. They are lightweight, ready mixed and provide a quality that professionals can rely on from a brand with over 80 years of expertise.

Quick Fill application copyThe new interior surfaces Quick Fill product from Toupret is fast-drying (ready to paint in just 30 minutes) and it can be filled to any depth with no shrinkage or slumping. Quick Fill is also easy to sand and there is no need to spot prime before painting over it as it will not flash or grin through the paintwork. Available as a tub in either 1L or 4L sizes. There is no limit on working time, ensuring a versatile solution for many types of job.

Also, part of the one coat family but for outside repairs, is the exterior surfaces Quick Fill product. This ready mixed, lightweight, and ready to use filler can be applied to cement, concrete, and masonry as well as plaster and old painted surfaces. It can be painted over in just one hour. It offers the same high quality Toupret finish and performance with no depth limit, and no shrinking or slumping. Plus, it’s rich in resin for extra strength – so you really can quickly move from job to job with the reassurance of doing it once and doing it well. The exterior Quick Fill is available as a 1L and 4L tub for applications both small and large.

Quick Fill int-ext copyThe Quick Fill range launch is part of a major rebrand and product reorganisation for Toupret. So now, not only can Toupret’s products be relied on to make a great quality filling job simpler and quicker, but it’s also much easier to choose the best product for any given task.

The extensive exterior surfaces collection is now easy to recognise in orange colour-coded packs, whilst the interior surfaces range is branded in red.

Many of the products have also been renamed to make their application as clear as possible. However, Toupret knows it has a loyal customer base and so the old product names remain discreetly on the packaging to ensure they are easy to find for everyone – for example exterior surfaces Quick Fill also bears the historical ‘Touprelex’ product name.

Both Quick Fill products are available to purchase from trade distributors nationwide.
