Snap-on’s Blue-Point storage units are priced to allow new technicians to purchase their first tool box and get to work so they can get their second one sooner, the company said.

“Our Blue-Point storage units are built to last, providing the space you need and security you can rely on,” said Jay Serpe, product manager for Snap-on. “When techs are just starting out, they usually end up having to make some kind of sacrifice. At Snap-on, we don’t think that way. Our Blue-Point storage units are strong, secure and affordable, giving new technicians a great head start on their career. And since our storage units are built to last, they will also have a great asset when it is time to buy their next box.”
