The majority of the company's turnover comes from the fixings industry. Over 15.5m fischer plugs and anchors are sold worldwide every day

Well 15.5 million per day times 250 working days a year times 50 years is 193 750 000 000 but that's worldwide and all types. So we'd have to guess at proportions.

As DIY shops are open at weekends here and in some other countries you would take that into consideration.

Maybe they've changed the form since you posted, but for me, it's right underneath your email- the first question before the rest of your details. Autofill put my first name into that box
