Blackwoods, Australia's largest supplier of work gear and safety supplies is now assisting their customers to go Butt Litter Free - and stay that way - with No BuTTs award winning Personal / Pocket / Portable Ashtrays now added to in-stock items.

Blackwoods, the largest subsidiary of Wesfarmers Industrial and Safety division is the leading provider of industrial and safety products and services in Australia and New Zealand.

"Over the last few years we've been supplying an increasing number of Blackwoods locations with No BuTTs Personal Ashtrays, as more and more of their customers requested them." said Jack Jacobson, No BuTTs Managing Director.

"We're very pleased that as demand for our eco-award winning Personal Ashtrays accelerates, starting with a roll-out in their Western Region, Blackwoods are now stocking No BuTTS Personal Ashtrays as an in house stock item always available to their customers whenever they need them."

Blackwoods services customers across mining, oil and gas, retail, construction and infrastructure, manufacturing, health and government.

"It makes perfect sense that we're now stocking No BuTTs Personal Ashtrays because more businesses every day are realising just how damaging their smokers butt littering is to their corporate image and public profile - let alone the damage done to the environment and risk of fires started from discarded cigarette butts." said Jennifer Bennett, Blackwoods Product Specialist.

"No BuTTs Personal Ashtrays completely solve the problem of cigarette butt littering wherever a smoker lights up - and word gets around."

"So as more of our customers every week walk into Blackwoods stores and want to buy a bunch of Personal Butt Bins then and there, it's very important that we can supply their requirements on the spot."

"With Blackwoods, 'All your workplace needs' actually means there and then." said Jennifer.

As demand for No BuTTs Personal Ashtrays increases and more safety and work gear suppliers incorporate No BuTTs Personal Ashtrays into their stocked items, No BuTTs is increasingly able to refer interested businesses to local suppliers.

"We're ready, willing and able to refer local customers to their closest No BuTTs Reseller, but obviously we're only going to refer customers to those Resellers that we know carry adequate stock of our products - and can supply most requirements then and there, when the customers needs it."

"We know from experience that if someone walks into a safety equipment or work place supplier to buy Personal Ashtrays - and they don't carry our product or have any in stock, that customer is probably going to contact us direct to order because everyone pretty much knows who we are - especially the customer who's asking for them."

"That takes more time for that customer and ultimately costs them a little more because of the freight or postage component. It's also a failure on the part of that Reseller not to be able to supply product when their customers want it."

"We have two types of Resellers." said Jack. "Those who don't carry our product, and only order Personal Ashtrays when one of their clients requests them, and then drive us crazy for an urgent delivery."

"And like I said earlier, often by the time they scramble to contact us for an order, so has that customer..."

"The good news is that No BuTTs also has a growing list of safety equipment and work gear supply resellers like Blackwoods, that understand the amazing popularity and general need for our products - and who are eager to promote and push the issue of corporate butt litter reduction to their customers, rather than wait to be pulled."

"And that's why every week, more Resellers across Australia are realising that there's many good reasons to carry No BuTTs Personal Butt Bins in stock."

"Apart from the fact that we can then refer local customers direct to them, our Resellers are also discovering that if they introduce No BuTTs Pocket Ashtrays to their customers - and we help them do it - there's a very good chance that many if not most of those customers will buy them - and keep buying them."

"That's because every company and organisation has smokers on the payroll - and No BuTTs Personal Ashtrays completely eliminate the need - or any excuse for ever littering a cigarette butt." 

"And in this day and age of environmental responsibility and the growing public, media and government awareness of the problem - and consequences of cigarette butt litter, it's simply idiotic for any organisation's Management to act like an Ostrich and ignore the issue of their own smokers cigarette butt littering."

"Cigarette butt litter is obviously bad for the environment but it's even worse for the public image and corporate profile of any organisation or business that has staff or contractors who litter their butts - especially when in work gear or in or near company vehicles - because people do notice when smokers litter their butts, and it's not a good look."

"That's why we're so excited about the upcoming launch of No BuTTs Reseller Locator." said Jack.

No BuTTs Reseller Locator will help refer customers direct to a local supplier that we know carries Personal Ashtrays and or No BuTTs Eco-Pole Stainless Steel Ashtrays as standard stock items.

"The ability to be able to supply required No BuTTs products when they're needed is good for the customer, good for that Reseller and good for us - and we want to help those Resellers as much as we can with local referrals, and our Reseller Locator is designed to do that."

No BuTTs Reseller Locator will display the closest Resellers, and list their:
