Registering your company is free of charge and only takes a couple of minutes.

There are many benefits to the two types of user (Vendors and Fabricators) that may register. Both have the ability to perform advanced searches which places the responsibility on the supplier to contact the user and offers a much wider search.

There are three sections to complete when registering:

1. Basic company information
2. Specific company information
3. Categories

1. Basic company information

Below are the fields that you must complete for this section. Once complete, click Next to proceed to stage two.

Contact Name Please enter the correct contact within your company. This will not be published.
Company Name Enter your company name as you would like it to appear. This will be displayed on the screen.
Company Address Enter your address using the correct Fields, including your zip/postal code
Type of Business Enter whether you are a Vendor or Fabricator or both
User E-mail Important: Your e-mail address is your Login name.
Main Company E-mail Enter your company e-mail address so that potential customers can contact you online and get straight through to sales. This may be the same as your personal address.
Fax Number Enter your correct number in numerical format. Do not include your international dialling codes. Do not include spaces or brackets. e.g. 1(111)222 3333 becomes 111 222 3333
Telephone Number Enter your correct number in numerical format Do not include your international dialling codes Do not include spaces or brackets e.g. 1(111) 222 333 becomes 111 222 3333
Password This will be generated automatically by the system and will be sent to you via e-mail when you are first registered. If you lose it, send us an e-mail from the USER E-MAIL address and we will e-mail you your password.
Type of business This is the most important question asked within the entire registration process. We offer different services to Vendors or Fabricators. In a few rare cases a company may appear to be in both categories. If you select the wrong category you may re-edit your details to modify the business type.
