As we begin our second year since the launch of our CORE brand, we take great pride in celebrating its enduring success as we mark our 1st anniversary. With every product purchased, each satisfied customer, and every milestone reached, it becomes increasingly evident that CORE is making significant strides within the current competitive market landscape.
Join us as we journey through the highlights of this remarkable year and explore what is at the heart of the CORE brand’s success.
What is CORE?
CORE is a range of HVAC products representing exceptional quality and true value for each installer. Offering customers a competitively priced, trusted alternative to other branded products across multiple HVAC categories.
The brand was devised with the customer in mind, using knowledge and expertise from Smith Brothers’ 125+ year trading history. Ensuring CORE products offer the ultimate performance and standards you would expect from a leading brand.
Ultimately, our CORE range of HVAC products is designed to meet your project requirements, and when combined with Smith Brothers’ outstanding customer service, you can trust CORE to be your go-to HVAC partner.
The success so far
Because of the unpredictability of the cost-of-living crisis, CORE has unquestionably exceeded its projections, achieving sales totalling more than £19 million from over 21,000 products sold within its inaugural year.
Over 1,000 products within the range
Smith Brothers boasts an inventory of over 1,000 products under the CORE brand, spanning across various categories including:
- Fittings
- Valves
- Pumps
- Water Treatment
- Pipe Support
- Controls
- Consumables
- Heating & Plant Equipment
CORE products are available through the Smith Brothers network, which encompasses 21 branches within the UK. You can view the exact locations on the interactive map by clicking here.

Second year exhibiting at the Installer show
Following the success of visiting the installer show last year, CORE is excited to announce its return to the NEC in Birmingham from June 25th to 27th. The stand will be bigger and better than ever, as we are proud to be exhibiting alongside our exclusive distributor partner Smith Brothers Stores. Our friendly team will be on hand to help advise you and answer any questions. There will even be an element of fun and some great giveaways.
So, pay us a visit on stand SH40 to view the range. We look forward to meeting you there!
CORE's presence
You will notice CORE’s presence when visiting a Smith Brothers branch, as we have provided trade counter stands to showcase our extensive range of products. Additionally, we have earned spots on the highly sought-after supplier walls within the branches, demonstrating that Smith Brothers trusts our products to deliver quality and value.
CORE’s influence extends beyond the branches, we have launched campaigns to advertise within motorway services and on billboards, reaffirming our commitment to serving the HVAC market.
Documents and Literature available online
We have introduced three product line brochures covering Water Treatment, Capillary & Compression Fittings and Pipe Support Systems in just twelve months. However, this year, we are thrilled to unveil our comprehensive product range brochure, featuring the full range.
