UK International, the innovative designer and manufacturer of utility lighting products, protective cases and accessories, has won a Reader’s Choice Award from Utility Products Magazine for the second year in a row. 

 

This year’s award is the result of the amount of readership responses to the company’s LitFinger™ utility light which was highlighted in the April 2006 issue of Utility Products Magazine in an article entitled “New Lighting Solution Casts Light on the Problem”.  

 

The announcement of the Reader’s Choice award will be printed in the February 2007 issue- Utility Products Magazine’s ANNUAL BUYERS GUIDE issue- where the article will be reprinted in its entirety.

 

In October the LitFinger™ light- the first utility light for use in hotstick operations in poorly lit areas, was already awarded a 2006 INNOVATION Award from Electrical Contracting Products magazine at the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) Tradeshow held in Boston. 

 

“We’ve built our company by listening to the needs of users and then deliver products that meet those needs. We also pride ourselves on being quick to respond to trends and we feel that we are excellent in getting those new innovative products to our distributors in a real time manner.” said Walter Kaihatu, President of UK International. “UK products like the LitFinger™ are a great example of what can happen when a manufacturer addresses those market needs and supports the pull through sale of those products by offering innovative solutions rather than develop product which we think makes sense.”
