BHETA Electrical launches

BHETA has launched BHETA Electrical: a new membership offer aimed at SDA suppliers and others offering home enhancement or home improvement products powered by mains electric or battery. BHETA Electrical focuses on everything to do with the complex technical and logistical issues around marketing products with a plug or battery power. 

7- BHETA copyMembers of BHETA Electrical can access two influential committees.  The Small Electrical Appliance (SEA) Committee is group of senior managers from the industry with a remit to protect, promote and safeguard the interests of the sector.  Only BHETA Electrical members qualify to join the committee and then only by invitation.

The Environmental, Operations and Safety Committee (EOSC) is open to technical managers from electricals suppliers (across housewares and DIY) and discusses and agrees common industry understandings regarding quality and safety issues.  This includes product returns via WEEE, service matters and legislation.  The committee can access the latest information from the British Standards Institute, the JTA (Joint Trading Association), the BEIS (Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy), the OPSS (Office for Product Safety and Standards) and the ICER (The Industry Council for Electronic Equipment Recycling).

At the core of the BHETA Electrical membership are ten companies who collectively joined BHETA when the Small Electrical Marketing Association (SEAMA) disbanded in 2020.   New members can expect exclusive invitations to electrical networking events, first-hand access to industry legislative and technical information through EOSC, and lobbying power with government, regulators, and influencers up to two years ahead of all industry legislation.

Membership also provides unique access to other ICER members, including producers of electronic and electrical equipment, compliance schemes, waste management companies, treatment facilities and recyclers.  BHETA also supplies its BHETA Electrical members with aquarterly market data report in, produced in partnership with Globaldata, showing category growth rates in the small electricals sector, as well as regular retailer updates.

Chief operating officer of BHETA Will Jones commented, “There are numbers of issues and opportunities in the home enhancement and improvement industry at the moment and some of them are potentially legislative.  The launch of BHETA Electrical is all about a united approach to both the challenges and the opportunities and as ever, BHETA will be combining powerful lobbying with excellent retailer networking, covering off all the important issues of the day.”
