New film studio!

Customer service comes first at PlasticPipe Shop Ltd., and we have recently invested in a new film studio facility, in order to create high quality and informative videos about the plastic pipe systems we supply.

The videos are to be posted in the relevant sections on our website as well as on our own You Tube channel PlasticPipeShopTV. 

Making the move from pipe technician to movie director, and ecommerce to acting has been a new experience for us all here! After several interruptions by trucks reversing outside, dogs barking and people coming into the room unannounced, we finally worked out that we are best recording these plastic pipe videos in the middle of the night when the rest of the country is asleep. So if we look a little bleary eyed in some of them, it is not because we have been out burning the midnight oil the night before, but probably because we are still burning it whilst recording! After, admittedly, trying to do it on the cheap using webcams and other low cost recording equipment, we decided that grainy images and muffled voiced weren’t up to scratch, so after a lot of investigation, we find ourselves now experts in video equipment as well as plastic pipe! 

Our first video on the differences between single union and double union plastic ball valves was uploaded a week or so ago, and since then we have recorded three more; a “how to” on chamfering pipe and tow product videos on fine control gate valves and valterra slide valve.

The plan is for all of use to have a shot in front of the camera so that you, our customers can get to see our ugly mugs and put a face to a name when you are speaking to us about plastic pipe fittings on the phone.
