Product Safety

The safety of our customers is paramount, so on this page you’ll find details of any products which have been recalled either by us or our suppliers in case of an issue with quality or safety. You will also find details of any design changes that have been applied to a particular product range.

Product Change Notification

Affected Product Identification: Complete range of SDD# / EDD#.

Change Description: Craig & Derricott will be enhancing the painting process around conduit entries to eliminate paint accumulation in the spot face areas.

Reason for change: Craig & Derricott are unable to obtain the original paint used on the conduit entries and the substitute paint is taking much longer to apply. The new paint alternative also does not have very good adhesion. Due to the volume of product required, we have implemented this small change where we will no longer be painting the spot face areas on the conduit entries, after they have been machined.

Notably, these modifications to the painting approach do not compromise the fit, form, or function of the enclosure, which is crafted from high-quality aluminium diecast material.
