Dogs in Parks, Snow is off and MOTHER'S DAY!

The snow has melted- the last ‘dregs’ were on the Cwmbran car park on Monday morning.  We are now back to normal, phew!

Mark is still drinking Sangria in Tenerife and will be back this week, probably with a well-earned suntan. Lady Macca and her trusted companion, Norman the patterdale have been on the road, North South, East West visiting clients, discussing new ideas and projects in the pipeline and  brand new businesses to Airquee looking for us to create something special. Shhhhh it's all Top Secret. It appears that Norman was Chief Tester at an installation this week and was having fun during the training session on the HUUUUUUGGGGEEE 90m x 30m INFLATABLE THEME PARK! 

Click here to see Norman!

Wayne, Carole and Ollie haven’t stopped since the thaw and orders are coming in thick and fast. We also welcome a NEW addition to our UK Sales Team at HQ Cwmbran; VICKY… new to the industry Vicky is being blown away by all of the inflatable jargon and vast array of innovative Airquee products!

Wayne is looking after our French customers ‘sacre blue’…after Solene’s departure and the Lucky Lady is off to the far east in a weeks’ time fo a full 9 months. Let’s hope she applies the SUNSCREEN!

Our TWO amazing factories are still working flat out making and creating our incredible inflatables and we couldn’t be happier.

Oscar in the Netherlands, our Airquee European Director is doing his bit to conquer Germany and get more buyers to choose Airquee and it is working as word spreads. Oscar is well known to the Europeans and his years of experience and knowledge are invaluable.

A word of thanks to our senior Design staff who all work hard, under pressure to create all the beautiful products we make they and the Stitching Teams are our unsung heroes. Well done to Rob, Ryan, Laci, Bela and all the other designers and visualists at our factories.

Phil H and Lady Macca are off to join our Romanian Team next week. More news to follow next week…… Be patient and if you can’t wait why not get on Facebook and Instagram!

PS. It’s MOTHER’S DAY this SUNDAY!!!  

SNOW SNOW AND MORE SNOW- THE BEAST FROM THE EAST ARRIVES IN CWMBRAN

This week at Airquee was dominated by the winter weather that hit the UK. The Siberian winds and arctic cold weather arrived on Wednesday night, then it started to snow and it hasn’t stopped.

Even Airquee Cwmbran had to succumb to the Polar blasts and knee deep snow and shut its doors today. Our Factory Team are finding this hilarious as annually they soldier on through -30 temperatures and metre deep snow drifts and we are halted at a mere fluttering! Don’t think we’ve all got a day off and gone sledging we are all here, working remotely from our warm homes ready for those orders, questions, advice, repairs and testing bookings. Just call 0117-9414918 option 1 and we will be here. 

(Norman and a lot of SNOW!)

All deliveries have been cancelled by the shippers so this is beyond our control; we hope to have normal business resumed next week. 

(Deliveries are back on Monday 5th)

Our other news was Solene, our multilingual sales executive left us on Wednesday she brought in a HUGE delicious strawberry cake for everyone and then said her goodbyes. She will be off on the Far East travels very very soon. Au revoir Solene.

Mark our illustrious leader took to the skies for warmer climes this week to work he says….. Tenerife for a week!  He seems to enjoy shopping so we bet he has bought a 4ft Straw Donkey, a large Sombrero and a pair of castanets….ole…. bring us back some duty free !!!

(Bon Voyage Mark!)

If you have any questions about our inflatable range, a specific product you have your eye on, something in stock or you want us to do a safety inspection or PIPA just call us on  0117-9414918 and we are here to help between 8am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday, evenings and weekends we do our best to respond to social media too.

Bowling, Big NEWS and Sol's leaving...

Another exciting week at Airquee. We have had lots of Visitors this week. Lots of brand new ideas discussed and potential orders to come !!

The orders have simply not stopped here in the UK, and orders are picking up a pace in Europe.

Today, Airquee opened in 1^st Germany Office…Wunderbar !! Airquee Europe has 3 staff now and will be getting bigger and bigger in the months to come. Supported from the UK as well, we are delighted to have a foothold in Europe’s 2^nd Biggest market.

(The UK Office bowling)

Sad new, our Solene is leaving next week for pastures new. Last night, as a going away bash, the whole Cwmbran office including the Bosses took everyone out for a slap up meal followed by a night out Bowling. 2 teams, 'the Good at bowling’ team versus the ‘Useless at Bowling team’. Guess what, the ‘Good’ ones won the game, with Ryan, our Designer winning the Title of Top Scorer. He's certainly brilliant at throwing those balls !! Phil H came in last position-he couldn’t throw a ball in a straight line if he tried…he came last !! haha.

The troops arrived back to Cwmbran after a successful Irish show outside Dublin. I bet some Guinness was drunk  !! I bet Adam from Romania downed a few over there.

In Romania, our 2 factories hit an all-time high of Production this week (PS can’t tell- you its

top secret) Thank you one and all for your hard work and efforts. Our business is going from strength to strength.

This week, there was some normality…..Half Term in England, lots of Hirers were on the phones ordering last minute inflatables for the summer.

Lady McIvor did us proud on Shrove Tuesday with her take on ‘How many pancakes can I make from this small box of batter?’ quiz. Yummy, they were delicious…One of our customers, Reiss Taylor Remblance guessed closest– she made 17 pancakes!

 And he won a £75 voucher off any future purchase. Well done Reiss.

It’s been all go again at Airquee. The Northern Ireland show was a great success again. It was great to meet old clients, enjoy the ‘craic’ and meet brand new customers who decided to come and have a look at our exciting range of Inflatables. All in all, it was a fantastic weekend. Our Unicorn bouncer was the talk of the show this year !! and, of course, the Minions additions to our Licenced artwork themes.

Our Romanian Trio , Erika, Tilda and Edina enjoyed the emerald isle (they didn’t touch the Guinness honest !), the food and the atmosphere. Tired after a long 10 days, 2 trade shows, they travelled back home. We miss you ladies. Come back and visit us soon !! Today, lady Macca, Phil and Adam from the factory are off to Dublin for our Spring Irish show this weekend.  They will be visiting our lovely colleague Gerry at Bounce Ireland in Navan and all those lovely Irish customers bringing their euros to spend.

(Girls at the INPAS 2018 Show)

INPAS was a great window for Airquee and our Products. Liverpool was a great city to showcase what we do too. We met loads of our customers and had a very good show. Erika, Tilda and Edina all came over from our factory and it was great for them to speak and meet customers face to face.

Erika and Tilda have been before, however, this was Edina’s first show and she simply loved it !!

All 3 ladies are working in the Cwmbran office before they all fly to Northern Ireland for the first of our 2 Irish shows.

A belated Happy New Year to all our followers, customers and readers…Things are stepping up in Europe and Oscar Dragt our dynamic new addition to the Airquee family is busy developing a new Team for European customers; we will keep you posted as things happen. 

Airquee UK welcomes Bonita to our Customer Service Team.  Bonita will be job sharing with Jade and helping to ensure that all post sale enquiries, annual testing and repairs of inflatables are handled efficiently.

Also in the UK Phil ‘our Man who always Can’ has been ‘run ragged’ preparing for the INPAS 2018 Show at Liverpool where we will be launching some interesting new inflatables and showing off crisp new Despicable Me and Minions licensed artwork… Exciting times…. Kerry, our Globe Trotting Sales Director returned from New Zealand full of ‘pop’ and has been annoying everyone in the office with her effervescent personality, maybe we should cancel her annual leave to calm her down!

(Dont miss out seeing us at INPAS 2018 in LIVERPOOL!)

Sol is planning for pastures new as she is going to be travelling across Asia and beyond with her partner… we still have her skills until end of February.  Poor old Wayne has been struck down with a terrible virus but being the Soldier of Sales that he is has been working from his bed surrounded by Vick’s Vaporub, Lemsip and lots of tissues! Bless…   Carole continues with her quest for World domination of leisure inflatables and her beloved Scotland has been chosen to have an Airquee Show in the Autumn so she is one happy lady!  Ollie enjoyed his festive break with his newly acquired fiancé status and menagerie of animals and has returned to work and is bang on it with his specialism of the Inflatable Theme Parks!

Check out our page for the Inflatable Theme Parks HERE!

Our amazing Team at the Airquee SRL factories in Romania returned to work after the Christmas holiday to inches and inches of SNOW! Erika, Tilda, Edina and Adam will be venturing across to the UK to help out at the forthcoming exhibitions.  We couldn’t be as successful as we are without these committed members of our team.

(Winter around the AQ2 offices)

Easter is coming early this year so ensure that you are ready to hit the ground running by coming along to any of our upcoming shows in the UK, Northern Ireland and the republic of Ireland so that you can add to your hire fleet because the Easter Bunny will be hopping around from 30^th March and in Ireland this also means Holy Communion and Confirmation Celebrations will soon be upon us too.

Airquee HQ at Cwmbran has been buzzing with visitors to our Showroom since the doors opened on 2^nd January 2018, not only are customers coming to see new ideas they also want to have their existing inflatables tested or repaired.  Remember to get your inflatables out of storage and check them over as they need to be in good working order ready for the 2018 season to begin.

We have been blown away by the amount of serious interest in The Inflatable Theme Parks similar to the one we installed at InflataNation, Manchester; Facebook drummed up sooooooo much interest and the videos went viral.  It is likely that you will be seeing more and more of these incredible inflatable arenas during 2018/19 and Airquee are very proud of this achievement both in design, manufacture and installation of them.

Check out our EVENTS, its good to know what our next move is, and where can you find us around 2018!

See you at a Show soon and if you are in the area of South Wales why not pop in for a ‘brew’…
