These include hand sanitiser stations, screens at the counter, limiting the number of installers allowed at the trade counter at one time and also permanently removing the need for customers to sign on glass.

In addition to reopening trade counters, Wolseley has produced a number of helpful guides to help installers and business owners return to work as safely as possible and mitigate risks to their business.
