Industrial fume extraction firm Purex has secured funding from Barclays as its impressive growth continues.
The business, which has a facility in Brough, East Yorkshire, first launched in 2004, and today has offices in the 海角视频 and the States.
Specialising in fume extraction systems which take harmful dust and solvents out of the air, Purex has now been backed by Barclays.
The new funding will allow Purex to move manufacturing of its fume extraction cabinets solely to the 海角视频, improving both the quality and supply of the products.
Trefor Jones, finance director at Purex International, said: “We’ve been growing organically since we started out in 2004 and have worked alongside Barclays for many years.
“This new funding deal has enabled us to transfer the manufacture of the fume extraction cabinets entirely to the 海角视频 meaning faster end to end service for our customers and better control over quality and supply.
“Barclays have been a strategic partner to our business who continue to support our exciting growth plans.”
Purex International employs over 50 people locally, with turnover in 2019 expected to pass £12m.
