Product categories
When building IBS Portal, we improved the way our products are sorted and displayed, making it even easier for you to browse our entire selection and find what you’re looking for. Simply click ‘Products’ in the top navigation of the website for the new menu to drop down.


When hovering over one of the products (for example, Bollard Signs), you’ll see a preview picture of the product pop up on the right hand side of your screen. This will help you visualise what the product will look like when it arrives, and give you a bit more information if you aren’t too sure what a particular product is (some of them are pretty new!).



You can also click ‘Browse All Products’ for a visual representation of everything we have available, which could be the best option if you have a client who’s just not sure what they want!

We’ve also introduced a global search bar to make finding one of our 900 products even simpler (can we get an Amen?).

Product groups
When browsing our product selection, you’ll notice that most of our product types are sorted into three groups: Basic, Standard and Deluxe. You can filter these by using the tabs below the product information. These groups are to help you pick the best products for your customers needs and budget.




Basic
Our basic range is held to the same standard of quality as the rest of our range, it’s just the base option. If your client is looking for a budget-friendly product to do the trick, this group is the way to go.

Standard
Pick from the standard range if you’re looking for a middle ground option for a mid-range budget. Our standard products are all top quality, but without the bells and whistles of a deluxe product. We recommend using this range to upgrade your customers from our base offering.

Deluxe

It’s just a little bit fancy! Our deluxe range contains our top shelf, crème de la crème products. These are for your customers who are looking for the best of the best.
