Leser UK has officially opened its UK Distribution Centre at Stockton's Preston Farm.
Europe's largest manufacturer of safety valves has officially opened its UK distribution centre in Stockton.
Leser GmbH has gone “from strength to strength” since it first set up its facility at Preston Farm Industrial Estate two years ago - despite the difficult economic climate.
It invested heavily, doubling the size of the centre to create its UK hub - and equipped the centre with specialist and unique state-of-the-art safety valve test equipment.
During the last two years, the company has shipped millions of pounds worth of safety valves and has carried out service work for its products on chemical and process plants across the North-east.
The Stockton facility has also just become an Approved Repair Centre for the company’s products.
Chairman of Leser GmbH Martin Leser, visited Teeeside to officially open the newly-expanded facility, and was welcomed by MD of Leser UK Andrew Varga.
A spokesperson for the company said: “The facility’s test and maintenance service equipment is cutting edge patented technology, which supports reduction in plant downtime and operation risk.
“It includes world-leading in-situ safety valve test systems and the unique condition rating safety valve health monitoring technology.
“These capabilities are supplied both on the customer’s site and at the Stockton workshops.
“The new investment has resulted in increased stock holding and staff numbers in Stockton, so that the business will be set fair to support, and take advantage of, the upturn in the UK economy.”
Leser GmbH was established in 1818 as a jobbing braziery and has grown to become a global leader in the safety valve market.
Leser UK is part of the Seetru Group of companies.
