Getting Around The Website

Yes, you would need to register for a business account to be able to place an order.
I only buy decorating products from you at the moment - can I add some PPE products?
Yes, of course. You can use the PPE drop-down in the header to simply navigate to what category of PPE you're looking for. Alternatively, click on the PPE button which sits next to the Decorative Products button near the top of the homepage.
