15 years of "Blue Pages"
The development of a price range for the strong brand as "Manual of Fastening Technology"
The "yellow pages" represent the epitome of what a complete search directory for telephone numbers should be: this must have been the inspiration behind the corporate management and marketing decision to create the Böllhoff "Blue Pages".
And it was a pioneering decision. Unlike before, the Böllhoff catalogue became the entire industry's precursor and example for the layout and contents of a range and price list. The "Blue Pages" also made a big impact internally because it was the first time own brands were included and completely catalogued.
They started out in a separate volume and then became part of the complete catalogue with their own sections.
The "Blue Pages" have since grown: New ranges, a variety of useful product descriptions and a technical appendix which sums up the "Manual of Fastening Technology" booklet well. 2007 – the 10th edition came out in time for its 15th anniversary. It includes more new ranges, contents and updated DIN/ISO designations
Congratulations go out to the fathers and keepers of this important Böllhoff work and "Manual of Fastening Technology!" |

| The first edition of the "Blue Pages" in 1993 with the main volume containing the business products and a supplementary volume for the in-house products. |

Make the switch now from DACROMET® to Cr(VI)-free surface protection!
There are clear signals from coating and manufacturing companies that coating capacity is rapidly being transferred from DACROMET® to the Cr(VI)-free replacement product GEOMET®. This is having an immediate effect on the availability and price of DACROMET® coated fasteners and has resulted in significantly higher prices and lead times.
We thus recommend starting the transition process to Cr(VI)-free alternatives as soon as possible. We will be pleased to support you in this process.
GEOMET® ...
- Is offered as a chrome-free alternative to DACROMET®
- Consists of zinc and aluminium flakes in a silicon oxide matrix
- Does not contain heavy metals
- Is available in the variants 321 and 500 (with integrated lubricant)
- Can be applied using cold dip and spraying techniques
- Is aluminium grey in colour when no top coat is present
- The final colour can be determined by the application of an additional top coat
