Managing director Robert Bennet said the increase was due to focusing on high-end products and quality service.
“We are well established in the industry after 19 years, we know our markets well and what our customers are looking for”, he said. “We have concentrated on niche areas and providing excellent customer service, and over the years built up a very good in-house team.”
A new product - the GDU-Incus ultrasonic gas leak detector - will allow the company to continue to expand into world markets. This airborne leak detector offers a vast area of coverage, high sensitivity and an extreme temperature range, plus features such as self-testing and cleaning.
Mr Bennet said: “Importantly, our products have an extremely long life in the field whilst requiring very little calibration or testing, so offer long-term life-cycle savings that outstrip lower quality competitor products. Initial capital costs may be slightly higher, but hugely lower maintenance bills and long service life produce an overall lower cost”.
He added the long-term benefit message has taken time to get across in the industry but is now gaining momentum and has contributed to the increased turnover
