Stockton on Tees, UK, based company Evolution Valves LTD, has continued its impressive growth by following their January 2014 record sales month of £1.0 million with another record sales month in August of £1.6 million.
Sales Director Peter Cone stated that the achievement was entirely based on export sales with key orders emanating from North America, the Caribbean and Lithuania. “This is great news, not only for Stockton and our work force but also for the UK economy as we are creating global awareness of the company and the region. As a bespoke manufacturer of industrial valves for severe and critical applications in the upstream and downstream sectors of the oil and gas industry we find that the “made in the UK” banner is still associated globally with quality, integrity and performance which exactly fits with our products”
The company recently opened a sales office in Houston, Texas which has significantly contributed to the recent orders, most of which were won on evolutions revolutionary new triple offset valve. Hayley Lewis, responsible for internal sales of the Americas stated “the demand for this product is immense and we are receiving a lot of interest globally. All of our recent success comes from the TOV and our bespoke Butterfly Control Valves.”
With this growth the company expects further investment in the Stockton factory in both capital equipment and personnel, with several key staff appointment to be made by the end of the year.
