Satisfy your hunger for information at www.contractortoolsandsupplies.com 

We are excited to announce the grand opening of our new Web site, www.contractortoolsandsupplies.com.

Contractors as a lot are busy people. Your need for information is great. The myriad of details that must be handled on a daily basis can overwhelm even the most organized project manager or superintendent.

Having access to information is critical, and progressive contractors are more and more turning to the wonders on the World Wide Web.

From a contractor’s standpoint, the Web offers so much more than it did just two years ago. The vast majority of suppliers and many distributors have helpful Web sites that can help you locate the critical selection, installation or safety information you need to get your work done.

The trouble is, sometimes finding a company’s Web site is a tough task. Or, finding topical information on a subject your are researching – take fall protection, for example – that’s relevant to your needs can turn up many unwanted, time-wasting results.

At www.contractortoolsandsupplies.com, we have built a virtual infrastructure to help you find your way through the maze of cyber information. We’ve developed key areas that can help you in your daily efforts:

Story Archives: Readers have repeatedly thanked us for our concise coverage on how to use tools and supplies more effectively and safely. You can access articles that appeared in past issues of Contractor Tools and Supplies on a variety of topics. You can use the search function to hone right in on the subject, or you can browse the broader subject categories.

Manufacturer Directory: We are working with suppliers that work closely with the construction industry to develop a robust, helpful directory that can take you to a contact person within that company as well as hot linking you to the company’s Web site.

Product Directory: Few people know all of the suppliers of a particular type of product. That’s why we have added a Product Directory that will let you drill down to the exact type of product you are interested in and allow you to access the names of companies that supply that product.

Distributor Directory: Once you know what product you want, where can you get it? Like the Manufacturer Directory, we are working with distributors across the country that handle the products you use. You can locate distributors near you.

Product Spotlights: We are all product hungry. Product Spotlights will share some of the newest tools and supplies available and how to get more information about them.

These are just some of the components you’ll find at our Web site. Stop on by and check it out. We feel confident that it will become one of your favorite tools in your virtual toolbox.
