Our top five selling carpentry products of 2023

Seeing what is popular with our carpentry customers is always very interesting and for us, it’s also very important. We have to know what you want so that we can be better prepared for you in the future.  

In this article, we will highlight the five best-selling carpentry products of 2023 and look at what makes each product so desirable.  

5. Multifix 350ml Solvent Free Panel Adhesive 


At number five is the 350ml Solvent Free Panel Adhesive, which is a very useful product for any carpenter.  

Able to be used both internally and externally, the white panel adhesive cleans up with water and will provide very strong bond strength and reliable adhesion on the majority of common surfaces.  

It can also be used on damp surfaces, which is a big plus and thanks to its extended open time, you have more time to reposition, should you need to.  

In addition, there is an enhanced slump resistance, which allows for quick and direct bonding, while the high solids formulation reduces shrinkage.

4. Paslode Ring Galv Nail – IM360 Xi 


Paslode nailers can be a carpenter’s best friend, regardless of whether they are first or second fix and when it comes to first fix, the IM360 Xi is one of the very best.  

As such, it’s perhaps little surprise that the nail and fuel pack for that nailer feature so highly on this list. The sizes we offer are 51mm, 63mm, 75mm, the 90mm ring shank and the 90mm smooth.  

This nail/pack comes with 3300 x 2.8mm nails, as well as three Xi-series fuel cells, making it a very useful combi-pack.

3. 600ml Fire & Acoustic Intumescent Foil


The 600ml Fire & Acoustic Intumescent is an extremely valuable product for carpenters, given it plays a huge part in keeping people safe.  

The role of any intumescent is to swell when exposed to heat and the Fire & Acoustic intumescent is very effective.  

After being exposed to temperatures of 125 degrees, the intumescent starts to swell up and this acts as a barrier, preventing smoke and fire from coming through. 

It is Certifire approved (CF5840), fire rated (BS476 part 20/22:1987 and EN 126-4 (2006)) and offers up to four hours of fire protection.  

In addition to the 600ml foil, there is a 310ml cartridge and the product has recently become available in the colour orange.

2. 750ml Fire & Acoustic Seals Door Foam 


Fire & Acoustic Seals also take the second spot from 2023 with their gun grade 750ml fire door foam for fire doors and doorsets.  

The foam is designed to seal the gaps between walls and fire door frames and the foam itself can offer fire protection of up to one hour. 

It can be used with many different substrates, including timber frames, softwood, hardwood and even MDF.  

The foam itself is orange and has been extensively tested for both 30 and 60 minutes fire resistance grading, which it has achieved with BS 476:Part22:1987 and BS EN 1634-1.

1. Paslode Galv PPN Twist Nail 


At the top of the list are the Paslode hardened twist nails for the PPN nailer! These 3.4x35mm nails come in a set of 2500 and come with two fuel cells.  

These nails are hardened and twisted for ease of use, while they are also electro galvanised. The unique full head design offers the best quality finish in addition to outstanding performance. 

Given how popular Paslode products are, we had an inkling that at least one Paslode product would end up in our top five, but to have two in and one at top spot says a lot for its popularity!
