HILTI - Powering Construction
HomeFix Scotland, the building and maintenance arm of RCH Group, is delighted to have partnered with HILTI, specialists in power tools and fastening systems, to supply tools and equipment for our trade operatives across the group. HILTI are dedicated to making construction work simpler, faster, and safer by providing state of the art tools, systems, software, and support services.
HomeFix Scotland is committed to delivering excellent service where our customers are at the heart of everything we do, and this partnership will allow us to continue to deliver continuous service improvement, while at the same time supporting our staff with a range of equipment that is at the forefront of the latest technology available in the construction industry.
HILTI have provided a completely new tool range matched to the trade concerned and tailored to the individual tradesperson. All equipment is powered by the latest NURON battery systems, designed to allow us to work all day long with batteries that deliver superior power to corded or gas tools – and delivering up to twice the power of equivalent 18 or 20V platforms. Plus, this battery system is a one size fits all solution, meaning it can power everything from a hand drill to a demolition hammer.
Health and safety for our team is one of our highest priorities and this new toolset incorporates vibration reduction to minimize exposure to hand-arm vibration; active torque control to reduce the risk of tool kickback; and advanced dust removal systems designed to reduce exposure to construction dust – with vacuums built into most tools to allow for virtually dust free concrete cutting, drilling and breaking. In addition to this, all tools have an internet signature meaning we can location track and monitor the state of repair of all equipment remotely from our office.
Our partnership with HILTI is a huge improvement to the maintenance arm of our organisation and underlines our ongoing commitment to job security for our staff, the development of better, safer, and environmentally cleaner working practices, and another step toward delivering our ambition to exceed the expectations of clients and customers in the future.
