Clearsnap Holding. announces partnership with Design Objectives

[Washington, USA] 1st May 2008 - Clearsnap Holding, the company behind the leading ColorBox brand, is pleased to announce the appointment of Design Objectives as its UK distributor and partner.

Clearsnap (http://www.clearsnap.com/) has developed art supplies for rubber stamps for over 20 years. The first to introduce the raised ink pad to the market (eliminating size limitations on the stamp which an ink pad could be used with), Clearsnap has led the way in innovating change whilst tailoring product to meet the demands of all levels of Stampers. The introduction of the popular Cat’s Eye minis revolutionised the pricing for top quality ink pads, making them accessible and more versatile for consumers. Clearsnap has consistently manufactured to the highest quality, allowing them to give an unconditional guarantee on their entire range.

Offering a comprehensive range of vivid and varied pigment, dye and hybrid inks and accessorises, Clearsnap is looking forward to widening their outreach to card makers, general crafters and scrapbookers through their new relationship with Design Objectives. Teamed with Design Objectives, the UK’s leading craft supplier, Clearsnap products will now be available through select independent retailers.

Bill Warmouth, International Sales Manager for Clearsnap comments, “We are very focused on growth and support for the craft market. We have expanded our capacity in the US, so have researched the market within the UK to find a partner who shares our vision. Design Objectives has an established track record with their retailers, and are committed to expanding into new markets, with new premium products. We are impressed with their focus on the consumer, and their in-store demonstration support with retailers, as education is fundamental to success. We are thrilled with our new relationship, and are looking forward to developing new products and broadening our outreach.”

Becks Fagg, Third Party Brand Manager for Design Objectives adds, “We are thrilled to be appointed by Clearsnap, and are excited to be working with the leading name in quality inks and accessories. The comprehensive Clearsnap product range is complementary to all our premium products, and sits perfectly within the stable of brands now offered under the D.O umbrella.”

Design Objectives’ partnership with Clearsnap Holding signifies a focus on delivering premium third party brands to the discerning crafter. Design Objectives commitment to retailer support and consumer outreach, means they are perfectly positioned to respond to growing demand for affordable, quality, designer brands.
