Barbour Compendium launches today!

Online, April 30, 2010 (Newswire.com) - The Compendium is an industry leading building products directory, with a bespoke readership - it's only available to recipients actively working on construction projects. With just over 20,000 copies produced each year, The Compendium has to be personally requested, then each potential recipient is qualified to ensure the quality of our circulation isn't compromised.

This year's flagship edition is the perfect companion for architects and specifiers! It allows them to compare products and services from a range of manufacturers then make contact with them directly.

Following user feedback from last year, The Barbour Compendium has a fresh new look to aid easier navigation. New features include improved image-rich page layouts, clearer indexes and a comprehensive company details section. In addition, our green credentials are better than ever because this year's edition is printed on FSC paper and is being distributed in recycled and recyclable packaging.

A regular User of The Compendium, Andrew Spink from Pinnegar Hayward Design LLP says: "I've used the Barbour Compendium for over 20 years now and it is my first port of call when searching for contact details or researching alternative manufacturers, or for when I need to source new ideas on projects I am specifying. As we provide architectural solutions to a wide range of building types across most construction sectors, I like the fact that everything is clearly presented and easy to find, and can assist me no matter what type of project it is that I am working on."

Products within this hard copy reference source are also available online, as part of Barbour Product Search. To register your interest in receiving a copy of The Compendium, or to search our online directory, visit www.barbourproductsearch.info
