London, 26 January, 2009 - There are not many companies who can claim Glastonbury, Reading, Leeds, Latitude, Bestival, Glade and Womad festivals to name a few as customers Concept Products Limited can, however, as they have been supplying to the festival circuit since 2001. 

When Simon Dunevein, Managing Director of Concept Products, hopped over his fence to meet with pal and neighbour Michael Eavis, Organsier of Glastonbury, to talk about supplying bespoke garments and other products for Glastonbury in 2001 the meeting proved to be catalyst that propelled Concept Products into the realms of the ever expanding festival market.

It is the diversity and range of the products that Concept  sell as well as their ‘can do’ attitude that really sets them over and above the competition, particularly when you see the range of bespoke steward and security garments which have Reflexite’s GP340 imagine reflective tape on, uniquely incorporating each festival’s logo. It is especially important for security reasons that stewards and security personnel have easily identifiable logos embossed on the tape on their garments for easy identification, and is a great opportunity for festivals to further their brand.

The real reason that festival organisers buy from Concept is their expertise, especially as often licensing requirements mean certain health and safety aspects have to be in place, such as the garments security and other key personnel are wearing. With unpredictable weather conditions the importance of good visibility for these personnel, who ensure the safety of the crowds, is vital. The fact that Reflexite’s® GP340 and other EN471 approved garment tape provides the brightest and safest high visibility at night and in adverse weather conditions for many personnel, utilising an enclosed optical system allowing trim to retain nearly all its reflectivity when wet - even when drenched with rain, also helps in the decision process. It is a great comfort to the event staff that are kitted out with Reflexite’s® micro prismatic tape that they can at least be safe and seen when wearing garments with this tape on.

Working with organisers and security firms, stewards and marshals, who all play a part in ensuring that the festivals attendees feel as safe as possible, is how Concept continue to penetrate this market, with high quality, bespoke garments and other goods ranging from PPE to black bin liners, having Concept on your festival team of suppliers certainly guarantees a successful event. In terms of what Concept can do for your festival Simon Dunevein, Managing Director says "We continue as a company to bring new and innovative ideas to assist the events and festival industry with all aspects from decor to safety products".

Reflexite® invented prism based materials, and after more than 30 years provides products with the best possible visibility. Reflexite is the only manufacturer to offer the benefits of this superior technology consistently backed by years of experience, technical innovation and commitment to customer needs.
