Due to ongoing cost pressures, Bira Direct supplier LG Harris has announced an unavoidable price change on some of their products from 10th January 2022. 

Specially developed for the DIY decorator, the success of Harris products has always been down to how we continually develop products to meet end-user needs. We do this by striving every day to become better at what we do so that we can provide all kinds of people with the right tools and the knowledge they need to achieve success in every project. As part of Orkla House Care one of Europes largest producers of painting tools, we offer five renowned brands. Each is highly respected and popular, as proven by the fact that over many decades they continue to grow in their markets, and remain the choice of discerning DIYers across the UK.

In a letter to their business partners, their UK & Ireland Sales Director, Christopher Scott has said:

At Orkla House Care UK we continue to manufacture quality products using quality materials and components. As part of this, we are continually managing our cost base as effectively as possible, and I would like to thank you for your continued support. However, it is not possible for us to continue to absorb the ongoing cost pressures from all directions.

Please accept this letter of a price increase notification with a go-live date of the 10th January 2022, all orders placed from that date will be at the new agreed prices. Increases will vary by product, with the majority being in the range 6-8%. This increase will not cover all of the additional costs but we have decided to take a longer-term view. 

Your sales contact will be in touch to run through the line level detail in due course.

New revised price lists have now been issued in November 2021. You can download them below:

Yours faithfully
