Warner Saves Customers Money
New Turnout Gear Lockers Save $25 a Month for Every Firefighter

Warner is constantly looking for ways to help customers save money or improve their services. Every now and then a product is manufactured that can do both. Warner's patented new drying lockers are one of these products.

Summitville Volunteer Fire Department volunteered to test the concept product and provide feedback. After using the lockers for over a little more than half a year, their response has been extremely positive. "There is nothing worse than being called to the scene in the middle of the night and having to put on cold, damp gear," says Assistant Chief Keith Baldwin. "Warner's lockers have completely eliminated that and we are very thankful." Summitville has reluctantly turned their gear every five years. According to turnout gear manufacturers estimates, Summitville is now planning on keeping their gear for ten years.

Warner's patented lockers keep turnout gear safe from harmful UV rays saving departments approximately $25 per month for every firefighter storing gear. Purdue University recognized the importance of the product as a green initiative and has provided free engineering help. Their doctoral students provided computer analysis to determine how to achieve maximum drying power and efficiency.

Save Time and Cut Paint Costs
Warner's Primer Saves Distributors in Multiple Ways

Warner is constantly looking for ways to save distributors time and money. Warner's primer, developed by Sherwin Williams, is designed to help manufacturers achieve this goal.

Sherwin Williams' E2-W840 is a primer that does not need to be scuffed or sanded down prior to painting. Customers simply wash the bodies with water, apply a sealer, and apply top coat. The new primer's three major advantages are:

Superior corrosion protection - When scuffing and sanding bodies, painters often take off too much primer and sometimes take off the precious galvanneal coating negating corrosion protection.
Time savings - Painters will see substantial time savings from not having to scuff and sand primer.
White primer - New primer is white so customers do not have to paint inside of compartments. This saves both time and material expenses.

Warner sells the sealer kits for customers not currently using Sherwin Williams' products. Painters can spray S.W. sealer and then use either their standard top coat or the Sherwin Williams brand top coat.
