ABOUT US
A BRIEF HISTORY
The Company Director started as a 17 year old sheet metal apprentice in 1990 manufacturing ventilation duct for a medium sized business in Birmingham. Progressing by the age of 21 to work for a kitchen ventilation manufacturer. Specialists in stainless steel fabrications such as canopies, tabling, hot cupboards and ducting all made by hand. He gradually progressed to the installation of the ventilation systems so he could manufacture the complete process from the production to full installation on site.
By the age of 24 he had grown in stature within the company and was now designing, measuring, manufacturing and installing commercial kitchen ventilation systems for clients around the UK. Having a thorough understanding of the manufacturing process and now experience in delivering the full service with clients the time felt right to develop and branch out to exploring his own business opportunities.
His aim and ambitions for his company were to become a ‘one stop shop’ for clients with his USP being the fact he was able to deliver the full process and products for his clients with the experience he had now gained in the various areas of manufacture. In 2000 he launched his company as it is known today. This came to fruition after several years of hard work late into the evenings, renting equipment and manufacturing space. Saving hard to then be in a position to buy his own equipment and business premises.
The company has evolved to become a family run business who pride themselves on offering a great friendly service with full aftercare guarantees at competitive prices. The reputation of the company has gradually built up nationally with some leading clients utilising their services such as Papa Johns, Domino’s, KFC, Cosmo Restaurants and many more.
