Rite in the Rain’s groundbreaking paper technology is the new solution for protecting important notes from getting destroyed. A first of its kind, you can spill any type of fluid on this durable paper and it will wash completely off, without ruining your page or musings.

The brand was developed in the USA's Pacific Northwest to help loggers combat the rainy conditions, and now expands across the globe and can be purchased in notebook, notepad and sheet forms. Rite in the Rain’s original, all-weather and recyclable writing paper lets you write no matter the weather condition, which means it’s an essential must-have for people in a range of industries and hobbies, including trades, the military, outdoor workers/enthusiasts, chefs/venues and even at home with your families. The brand also makes archival grade paper, meaning it can last several hundred years; which is good news for those looking to pass down generational secret recipes and memories.

Making it easy for use in any location, Rite in the Rain paper is compatible with most average pens and printers. As long as water-based inks aren’t involved, there is no need to worry about the text washing off. Regardless of whether you are a chef looking to keep recipes in the kitchen, an adventurer wanting to print out camping maps, or a diver looking to document sea life underwater, Rite in the Rain’s new products are a perfect paper option. Rite in the Rain products will be available to purchase from October 2020 at Zen Imports. See the range here.

Zen has just added two new high-capacity portable chargers to our range of Powertraveller products - the Condor 100 and the Merlin 75PD.

The Condor 100 is a multi-voltage power pack with a pure sine wave AC port for plugging in your device’s mains charger. It can charge laptops, cameras, smartphones and many other 5 to 20V devices. Housing a massive 27000mAh battery, users can charge a plethora of electronic devices from the bi-directional USB-C port, dual USB ports, and a very useful AC outlet. It features a 4 LED battery level indicator, carry strap and a protective case, and has a rugged design that's waterproof & dustproof to an IP65 Rating.

Featuring a USB-C input/output port, plus a separate 5V USB port, the unit houses a powerful 20000mAh battery - giving users plenty of power on the move. The smart charging technology detects when devices are connected, disconnected, or fully charged. The Merlin 75PD is waterproof & dustproof to IP65 Rating.

Ledlenser has further expanded its range of Area Lights with two more additions to the range - the iF4R music and the iW3R.

Add sound and light to your worksite with Ledlenser’s new iF4R music Area Light. It has a high-quality built-in speaker you can connect your smartphone to via Bluetooth for use as a job-site radio. Like the original iF4R, the iF4R music has five brightness settings with up to 2500 lumens of light output and is easily charged via the magnetic charge system.

Ensure your smartphone lasts as long as your workday with the new iW3R Area Light. Not only does it provide you with a tough and reliable power bank, it also comes with the bonus of a high-powered 320-lumen spotlight to light up dark areas whenever you need it. The iW3R is ideal for handymen, construction workers, tradies or anyone looking for a reliable power bank with a built-in flashlight.

Zen is pleased to announce the launch of ZenStream - a new webinar service we've implemented to provide training and information on new or existing products in our catalogue of world-leading brands.

These sessions, which will be held on a regular weekly basis, will allow retailers to hear from and connect with our brand managers, as well as special guests and leading industry experts to discuss the latest developments from the brands first-hand. The virtual sessions will take place before and after typical retail hours, meaning they won't interfere with customer interactions, and will also be recorded and shared post-session, meaning they can be accessed as often as needed, and on-demand.

The ZenStream schedule for June is now available. To receive this schedule and sign up for ZenStream sessions, please contact your Zen sales representative or the Customer Service Team.

Dear Customers,
 
We greatly appreciate your loyalty to Zen, so we wanted to reach out to you to update you on the actions we are taking in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our highest priorities are to protect the health and welfare of our staff, their families, and our customers while doing everything possible to continue our normal business activities. With those goals in mind, we have implemented a policy that allows our employees who are able to work from home the option to do so for the time being. This includes some of our Sales and Marketing teams. We made this decision based on the guidance of public and private medical experts, who currently recommend “social distancing” to minimise potential exposure to contagious diseases.
 
Our employees will make full use of the latest computer technology to work remotely; however, since we may have fewer staff members present in the Zen Imports offices, some aspects of our daily business activities—like telephone communication could be more challenging depending on the directions from our government departments.
 
Zen employees whose jobs do not allow them to work from home, including our warehouse, warranties, and service departments, have modified their work processes to maintain a safe distance from their colleagues while remaining highly productive. All employees are monitoring their own health and the wellness of their families very closely and taking every precaution to avoid introducing any type of illness into the workplace.
 
We are committed to doing everything in our power to protect our employees and our customers while continuing to provide superior customer service. The steps we have taken, however, could affect some aspects of our business. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
 
Thank you for your continued passion for Zen Imports products and your patience and understanding during this uncertain time.
 
Kind Regards,

David Yates - Managing Director
