Global demand

Safety shower and eyebath
manufacturer Showers & Eyebaths
Services has seen turnover more than
double to £2.5 million in 2012. The
company is seeing a significant global
demand in quality safety protection to
meet the world wide increase in oil
and gas exploration, drilling, mining
and quarrying.

Operations manager Janet
Dickinson said: “We have spent the
past three years investing in a more
robust marketing strategy which has
included gaining the necessary
accreditations and certifications to
supply to countries such as Russia
(GOST), USA and Canada (CSA)
and countries across Europe. We are
now seeing a significant return in
this investment.”
The company has also grown its
network of overseas distributors and
continues to invest in innovative
methods of design and manufacture.
