Avon Group has achieved another year of positive growth despite the challenges of massive increases in energy costs, increased material costs and supply chain disruptions over the last year.
The Group has also continued to make significant investment in new machinery, recruitment and skills training to ensure it remains highly competitive in all the markets in which it operates.
“Our ambitious target of reaching a £100m turnover within two years is now firmly in sight”, said Kevin Harrop, Group Operations Director. “Despite strong economic headwinds, we are forging ahead and on target to meet our growth and profitability targets.”
Avon Engineered Rubber expanding overseas
Avon Engineered Rubber – the Group’s specialist aerosol seal manufacturing business – is seeing its share of the niche aerosol seal market growing significantly, especially in expanding global markets in South East Asia and South America.
“Our successful working partnerships with some of the world’s largest aerosol can manufacturers is leading to growing sales, as their confidence in us, as a reliable supply partner, continues to increase” says Kevin Harrop.
The business is already trading at sufficiently high levels in China and Thailand to justify holding local stock to ensure rapid response times to customer requirements in these markets.
Avon Group
The nine Avon Group companies operate in the automotive, aerosols and specialist industrial sectors, supplying OEM manufacturers around the world with specialist insulation, seals, gaskets and mouldings.
