Two Northern Colorado Businesses Partner        to Launch Retail Hardware Displays

Forney Industries of Fort Collins, CO has partnered with Eldon James Corp. of Loveland Colorado to create retail hose fitting and tubing displays that serve the needs of Forney's retail hardware business clients. Forney is a leading wholesale hardware distributor serving 14,000 outlets in the US and Canada. Eldon James manufactures hose fittings and tubing and sells products worldwide. Jan Anderson of Forney Industries and Marcia Sampson of Eldon James Corp. announced the launch of the fittings and tubing displays on June 10, 2004. The companies have been working together on the project since August of 2003. The colorful stand-alone displays are organized to help customers quickly find what they need and feature color-coded Tilt-out bins to simplify size selection.

Convenient Tilt bins allow the customer access to individual components rather than having to guess whether a part will work for their application. This type of merchandising is more customer friendly than bubble packs, and requires less space to merchandise. The Forney 4' display contains over 90 different bins of fittings!

Industrial Grade Fittings - Eldon James, single barb, black Nylon fittings are made from industrial grade, impact resistant nylon. Eldon James fittings are used worldwide in automotive, marine, heavy equipment and industrial applications.
