Consequently, our prime directive has always been that we will not sell what we cannot support.
By locating our factory in Tamworth, in the Midlands, we are based centrally within the UK, and close to the motorway network and two international airports ensuring that our well-equipped Field Service Engineers are able to reach the majority of our clients within a few hours, responding to emergency breakdowns in the shortest possible time.
