Welcome
to Textwrite Publications
Marc Bashford set up Textwrite Publications Limited in March 2003 with the sole purpose of providing the tool hire trade with comprehensive Operating & Safety Guide leaflets. These leaflets, under the banner of “Hire Guide Solutions”, differ from most in that they are product specific, as opposed to the sparsely written and illustrated (if any) generic type generally available. Hire Guide Solutions do offer generic guides however, but they are still up to the same high quality as all its guides.
Marc worked for many years with a large hire company and developed a vast knowledge of tools and plant, and applied this in his writing for the guides. When starting the company, he employed Mike Waeland for his desktop publishing skills. Mike creates the layouts and illustrations.
One of the most unique aspects of the Operating & Safety Guide leaflets is that they are created with the assistance of the manufacturers of each product. This ensures that all safety aspects are covered and the products are used properly, reducing excessive hire stock wear and tear. Some of these companies saw in Textwrite Publications another source to explore; Owner Manuals. We have now produced many manuals covering tools, plant and access equipment and even hot tubs, tents and safety harnesses.
