UK: Refrigeration wholesaler Dean & Wood is now stocking the Reflok aluminium pipe system.

Reflok is the heat-free aluminium pipe connection system offered in a range of air conditioning and refrigeration tube sizes with connectors and adaptors from 1/4in to 2 1/8in.

Commenting on the agreement, John Billson managing director of Dean & Wood said: “With Howard Noble at the helm Reflok was quick to establish its product range in the UK through end user specification, I believe together we now have the platform for success in the development of this relatively new market.”

Product and technical sales support will be nationally available from Dean & Wood.

In addition to this Reflok will be launched at the popular Dean & Wood Facing Change Roadshows touring the UK and Ireland.
