For the client, it’s a design feature. For you, it’s a standard of excellence. PDL Iconic® has become the industry standard because it doesn't force you to choose between sleek style and ease of install. It’s engineered to help you get the job done right the first time, every time.

Another reminder for your customers to check their smoke alarms, test them and make sure they’re still within date.
It’s a small job that makes a big difference. And if they’re ready for an upgrade, Wiser smoke alarms offer 10-year battery life, in-app battery status and added peace of mind with smart home integration. Plus, they support compliance with New Zealand’s updated Building Code requirements (C/AS1), including Type 1 interconnected smoke alarm systems in line with NZS 4514 – helping keep homes safer now and into the future.

The OG surface socket, just better ⚡️
We’ve taken the legendary 51SSE and given it a rethink for the modern site. Now featuring both vertical and horizontal cable entry, it’s the same reliability you’ve trusted for decades, with the extra flexibility you actually need.
One socket, endless possibilities. Grab a box at your local wholesaler and see the difference.
When you're working on high-end architectural builds, every millimetre matters. It's awesome to see the crew at .electric.ltd putting the Clipsal Solis™ Range by PDL through its paces.
This isn't just about a fresh look; it’s about that premium, tactile feel and a super-slim profile that fits right into the modern Kiwi aesthetic.
