International success

29 January 2015

British-owned specialist manufacturer of air-operated double-diaphragm pumps, Flotronic, has seen exports as a percentage of total sales rise from just 15% in 2003 to 40% in 2013.

25% of exports go to Europe - but pumps are being sold in increasing numbers across the world including the US and Canada (5%) and the Far East (2%) - with the remaining 8% distributed to the Middle East, India, South America, South Africa and Australasia.

The company is seeing particularly high overseas growth in pump sales into its target Pharmaceutical, Food & Beverage, Chemical manufacture and Cosmetics markets, with the two most recently developed products, the ‘Minichem’ - machined from a solid block of PTFE - and the 3-A accredited ‘H’ series hygienic applications pump generating particular interest.
