Irwin Industrial Tool Company is warning its customers to be on the lookout for a batch of stolen Irwin Jack saws.

Irwin Industrial Tool Company is warning its customers to be on the lookout for a batch of Irwin Jack saws stolen week commencing 18 April 2005 A trailer load of Irwin Jack Plus 500mm (Ref: 880UHP-500) and Jack 880 550mm (Ref: 10505444) saws was taken from a transport depot in Nottingham on Monday 18th April

Irwin has already contacted its stockists to warn them to be extra vigilant and is urging them to spread the news.

Irwin is confident that these saws will be traced.

Irwin Jack saws are highly conspicuous thanks to their familiar vivid orange handle synonymous with the Irwin Jack brand.

The Irwin Jack Plus 500mm has a two tone bright orange and black handle with a distinctive black sleeve.

The Irwin Jack 880 has a single piece orange handle with the Irwin Jack logo moulded into it with a black plastic edge guard.

Jon Dixon, the Irwin Jack Trade Marketing Manager commented on the theft: Unfortunately Irwin products are extremely popular and have long been the chosen tools for professionals.

This means that we are a prime target for opportunist thieves who know that there is a market for these products and they can move high numbers very quickly.

We are advising our customers to be extra vigilant at this time and ensure that they are only buying through a legitimate source that they know and trust.

If anyone has information about these saws or has been offered products that cause them suspicion, they should either contact their local police station or Jon Dixon at Irwin on 0114 2449066 or by email on jon.dixon@nr-europe.com.
