Filtermist will be showcasing the benefits of its oil mist collection units on Stand 3G4-01 (UK-EIA) at MTA 2015 in Singapore next month, to support the company’s phenomenal continued growth across Asia.

The UK team will be supporting subsidiary company Filtermist Asia Pte with its stand at the 20th edition of the popular show, taking place from 14th-17th April, to demonstrate how effective its extraction units are at cleaning the air in industrial workplaces.

Sales of Filtermist units in Asia have grown by almost 40% since 2012. Filtermist has significantly increased its presence in Asia in recent years to meet this demand for its products, and now has dedicated distributors across the entire region to offer local advice and technical support to customers looking for effective oil mist extraction.

Exporting products to Asia has been a critical factor in Filtermist’s global growth – the company began selling to countries including Japan and Taiwan at a very early stage, taking advantage of the opportunities offered by the rapidly increasing machine tool manufacturing sector in that area.

Expansion in the region led to a restructure of Filtermist’s ASEAN business in 2013 and since then a number of distributors have been appointed to support sales in markets including Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam.

Distributors are chosen for their ability to provide exemplary service and support, matching Filtermist’s ethos of offering unrivalled aftersales support and technical back up. Filtermist units are sold in more than 60 countries worldwide – a key factor in the company’s continued export success is the local support offered to customers around the World.

Managing Director, James Stansfield, elaborates, “Filtermist has an established reputation for providing an all-encompassing service. From initial audits to establish the best extraction system for individual requirements, to installing units and carrying out regular maintenance and servicing – when customers choose a Filtermist unit, they’re also buying into a global support network.”

Representatives from 15 of Filtermist’s Asian distributors will be attending a celebratory dinner, followed by an awards ceremony to recognise and thank sales partners for their support.

James continues, “Filtermist recognises that its success in export markets would not be possible without the continued support of our dedicated distributor network. We have worked with some of our Asian distributors for more than 30 years now and recent appointments will only serve to strengthen our regional market share.

“Our whole global sales strategy is designed around working closely with our distributors to support sales in their local markets. We invest a significant amount of time and resource into targeting markets that offer significant opportunities for us to grow our business and this strategy is reaping dividends – as evidenced by our recent growth in Asia.”
