KAR UK is delighted to have recently been awarded Kasco’s European Distributor of the Year 2020.

For over 50 years, Kasco – a family-owned company, has offered world-leading water quality solutions. Today, the company manufactures high quality products such as fountains, surface aerators, diffused aerators, de-icers, circulators and beneficial bacteria to aquatic industries – all of which are designed to improve water quality.

KAR UK – the leading wholesaler of irrigation equipment in the UK, distribute the innovative Kasco product portfolio, and over the past couple of years has seen an increasing demand for the products.

8696064483?profile=RESIZE_584xThis latest award follows the Kasco Top Sales Growth Award which KAR UK was presented with in 2019.

“It came as a bit of a shock to me,” admitted KAR UK Regional Sales Manager Roger Lupton. “We were aware that we had an exceptionally good and buoyant year with Kasco products, but we didn’t know quite to what extent.

“To be awarded this, above all the other companies throughout Europe is a great achievement – especially during a pandemic. It is very pleasing to be recognised for all the work we are doing with Kasco.

“There is a reason why the Kasco brand is so popular,” continued Roger. “The products stand out for their reliability and for their features such as interchangeable nozzles and a large range of motor units. Quite simply, they are premium products.”

Roger was also quick to praise the suppliers, installers, operators, and specialist contractors that work closely with KAR UK.

“At the end of the day we bring the Kasco products into the country,” he said. “But we then distribute it to several other companies, who in turn help to get the products to the end user. It is because of them, their efforts and hard work, as to why we have received the award from Kasco – so I would like to say a big thank you to everyone we work with.”

Commenting on KAR UK’s award, Joe Holz, Kasco’s International Sales Manager, said: “KAR has been a terrific distributor partner with Kasco and we are proud to present them with the 2020 European Distributor of the Year Award. 

“Their knowledge of and commitment to Kasco fountain and aeration equipment has propelled them to this top spot. KAR UK’s commitment to marketing, training, and customer service makes them a great partner with Kasco and an excellent resource for knowledge and service for the UK market. We have no doubt in their continued growth.”

"I bought a no name petrol blower on eBay for £30 as temporary fix. I expected it to last 6 months but 2 years later it's still going strong. It's a copy of the Stihl Bg 56. You don't always get what you pay for. "
