Putoline Distribution to become the UK Distributor of Roof Helmets

ADVERTISEMENT FEATURE: 

The French Manufacturer and designer helmet brand Roof, is to be supplied into the UK by Putoline Distribution Ltd. After the closure by the owner of the previous UK distributor ‘Thunderchild ‘ Roof  was  subject to a horrific  fire which destroyed their factory and warehouse unit near Nice, in the South of France. Since then Roof has invested in their own brand new manufacturing plant and have also rebuilt their original building in Pegomas, France, which is now a state of the art office and warehouse facility. Last year Roof celebrated 20 years of manufacturing helmets and the brand has gone from strength to strength.
For 2014 they have introduced a new model called the Rover, plus other new and exciting projects in the pipeline.  Roof is famous for their innovative side. In fact they were, for example, the first manufacturer to commercialize a versatile helmet with a chinbar rotating at 180°: the BOXER.  Also in 2012, with their new versatile DESMO, they launched an innovative and unique patented automatic mechanism of screen named “Desmodromic”.
John Hayden Managing Director said “This is a very exciting time for our company we are very pleased with the addition of the Roof brand.  These helmets are extremely unique and very individual and these are the exact qualities that we have been looking for.  Most helmet ranges are very similar and mundane to a certain degree. However there is nothing mundane or similar to the Roof models. The quality of the Roof range is superb and we have already had a great response from our customers that are keen to become Roof stockists and dealers”.
Ilham Mahfi, the Export director for Roof International added “We have been supplying a number of UK dealers directly over the past few years with great success, but we are delighted to have found a new way to strongly develop our brand within the UK. Putoline Distribution has a full sales team and warehouse facility and logistically they make a perfect partner for us in the UK”.
