Uniweb Offers 'Tilt-Up' Style Modular Rooms Does your store need a new room? A manager office, consultation room, ship- ping and receiving station, secure cash room, complete pharmacy center, tempo- rary space, reception area or a work/mail station? Regardless of its purpose, insist on a room that meets or exceeds your specifications cost-effectively and effi- ciently. A room that enhances your com- pany's function and style! Uniweb's "Tilt-Up" style modular rooms provide the answer. Quick and Cost Effective Uniweb modular rooms are designed, completely factory built and UL factory wired prior to arriving at the construction site. Precision engineering and assembly- line productivity generate savings in installation labor, needed materials and construction time. With minimal in field variables when installing a Uniweb room, materials costs are contained and fewer installers are required to achieve top-quality assembly. The speed of the room's set-up allows other subcontrac- tors to begin and complete their work faster than in other construction methods. The rapid construction phase helps to maintain your budget, while maximizing your operating and investment dollars. Uniweb rooms depreciate as a fixture as opposed to a capital or lease-hold improvements. Under present tax laws, typically, every third or fourth room purchased gives you one free! Innovative Uniweb Tilt-Up facilities reflect the design and production of innovative, functional and aesthetically pleasing rooms at costs that challenge the devel- opment of traditionally constructed rooms. Uniweb recog- nizes how crucial your retail, consult or pharma- cy space appearance is to you and to your cus- tomers. Uniweb's design team works alongside your personnel and archi- tects to craft and create a welcoming ambiance for the customers. The components will meet your company's specific aesthetic requirements, including surface options, materials, custom colors and finishes coordinating with your store's interior. Column-free uprights with continu- ous channels allow for an integrated and flexible clutter-free functional working environment with unrestricted merchan- dising or storage space. Modular shelv- ing, cabinets and accessories are easily interchangeable and exceptionally practi- cal. Every Uniweb room can be custom designed to meet exact requirements, both in function and appearance – feel free to dream and design! Durable and Safe Uniweb products will not rip or tear and are more fire resistant than tradi- tional wood shelv- ing and drywall. You will have a productive room that will last and continue to be a supporting member of your retail team for years to come. Since most of the fabrication and wiring is completed in the factory, and install starts at ground level, Uniweb's Tilt-Up rooms allow for a safer working environment for installation crews than traditional drywall builds and the reduced construc- tion cycle decreases the opportunity for accidents. Uniweb modular rooms pro- vide attractiveness, efficiency and longevity. Imagine the goal; Uniweb will help you bring it to reality.

In an extremely competitive category with little innovation and a plethora of brands, why create a new sponge prod- uct? According to Jim Kordenbrock, Founder of the DishFish family of prod- ucts, "there is an amazing love-hate rela- tionship among sponge users and their sponges, yet we found it's a topic con- sumers love to discuss. This is not sur- prising as sponges are a product we use virtually every day. We found that con- sumers were looking for a sponge that would last longer, stay clean and not smell. Our solution was the DishFish!" The process began when Foamtec International hired Kordenbrock to create their first consumer product after 22 years in the B2B market. "We were able to leverage the expertise of Foamtec International, an industry leader in high tech specialized foam applications within the automotive, electronic, cosmetic and medical industries. Foamtec's clean room solutions provided the foundation for the real science behind the DishFish materi- al. It's the material inside that makes the DishFish truly revolutionary. Kordenbrock's team set out to create the "perfect" scrubbing sponge. They lis- tened to hundreds of customers and test- ed dozens of products in order to create the final DishFish product. The first and most important differentiator of the DishFish is the patented design. It's shaped like a fish to ergonomically fit in your hand, clean tight spaces and most importantly, stand on its tail to drain and stay fresh. As a result, the DishFish does- n't smell. "A rectangle sponge provides cost savings and a round sponge is novel, but neither of the two options are func- tional. Plus, a round sponge will roll off the table. We wanted something unique, fun and functional," said Kordenbrock. The DishFish addresses many of the issues consumers have with sponges. Compared to the competitors, the DishFish is stronger, stays clean longer and is more absorbent. Additionally, the DishFish won't scratch sensitive surfaces and avoids those horrible bacteria odors by standing on its tail to drain. Remarkably, when con- sumers try the DishFish, nearly 92 percent prefer it over their current scrub sponge. According to Kordenbrock, "When you create a product with this high level of acceptance, it means you listened and delivered a product that consumers love! This is amazing to me and it's also what I am most proud of!" In fact, during the extensive consumer research, consumers actually used the word "perfect" to describe the DishFish. This strong prefer- ence fits the new DishFish tagline: "Other Sponges Don't Stand Up!" According to Kordenbrock, "Our best sales tool is to simply have people try the DishFish. Once you try it, you will understand why we created the DishFish family of products and why 'Other Sponges Don't Stand Up!'"
