Since our creation in 1989 by our founder, and former owner, John Bell we have constantly strived to provide the highest quality products and services combined with industry leading service and support to our customers. This passion has led to an enviable reputation within our chosen sectors particularly when combined with our world-class CIP and engineering knowledge and expertise.
In 2012, we attracted the attention of the international family owned Christeyns group and joined their ranks as part of Christeyns Food Hygiene becoming a full member of the family in 2017 when John decided to retire leaving his creation in the safest of hands. Since that point our flair and ability has merged with our European partners to bring to our UK and Irish customer base an enhanced range of detergents, disinfectants and services drawing on experts from Finland to Morocco and France to the Czech Republic.
With our speciality laboratory facilities in Warrington (supported by partner labs in Belgium, Spain, Italy and the Czech Republic) we can analyse debris and items of equipment to devise the most effective detergent solutions to ensure that your clean is the most efficient possible in terms of chemical composition, time and cost whilst providing the safest possible solution for your staff.
