Filtermist is pleased to announce that it has joined Made in the Midlands (MIM) and will be exhibiting on Stand 41 at the Manufacturing Exhibition taking place at the GTG Training Centre in Wolverhampton on 12th May.
Filtermist was established in Bridgnorth in 1969 and relocated to Telford last year. The company works with a significant number of the region’s manufacturers and OEMs to ensure people are protected from a range of hazards caused by airborne contaminants including oil mist, dust, smoke and fume.
Filtermist Director of Sales, Stuart Plimmer, comments on the decision to become a Made in the Midlands member: “92% of the oil mist filters we make are exported overseas, but the UK is still a key market for us. Made in the Midlands is aligned with our target customer base and offers enormous potential for us to raise awareness of our products and services to a local audience.
“The West Midlands is renowned for its manufacturing output and we are extremely proud of the growing contribution Filtermist makes to both the local and national economy. We are looking forward to meeting with other like-minded members to further strengthen the Midlands’ reputation for manufacturing excellence.”
Made in the Midlands aims to celebrate the region’s manufacturing prowess by bringing like-minded companies and individuals together to strengthen business and share best-practice. It also plays a key role in championing the needs of manufacturers with policy makers and is focussed on engaging with young people to showcase the opportunities available in the industry.
MIM Director, Charles Addison said, “We are delighted that Filtermist have joined our manufacturing and engineering peer group. They are passionate about the Midlands region and we are excited to see them at our future events. We hope that Filtermist can develop strong partnerships with our members and continue their brilliant work.”
Filtermist will welcome other Made in the Midlands members to a breakfast meeting it will be hosting at its purpose built premises on the T54 Business Park in Telford later this year.
