How long u been getting bags like that @Stef?
I had pallet only few weeks ago, and that certainly wasn't on it.
Or is it something you have to state you want?
They are only made for Leo @ WesterHope tiles I think.
I've been getting 25kgs for a while now.

I never had a customer yet carry there tiles upstairs ready for me...most back the car to the garage off load them and there they stay !!..
my clients, they also carry my equipment. antonio, puts everyone at attention, when it to the work site.
otherwise keys of the van and go home.
it takes respect. ahaha

Because of EU regulations, I believe, but could be wrong! :D
That bagged weights were reduced to a max of 25kg so that one man could carry easily.
No EU, maybe now no restriction again.

But yes, normally 20kg Antonio.
I am just joking. :D
Here all 25kg.
adhesive lightened 15/18 kg
remember, remember the bags of cement 50 kg. :(

That's ok but you can bet there would be some customers who took your voucher and didn't have you do the job!
It wouldn't matter as I write the slip out for them & it has to go through my account.
Even if I don't do the job then I still get the 15% back of whatever they have spent.
Free money..

Think TM might be getting a few calls on Monday...."I want, i want 25kg bags too" :)
Think you would need to be going through the same amount of addy as Leo to get them though.
Think he does about 50 pallet a week..
I converted a guy to TM & he buys from Leo now & reckons he's saving about £11k a year on addy, levellers & matting.
