was established in Horsham,
Surrey in 1966 by Bill Milne initially to supply plastic
protection caps and plugs for the engineering industry.
In 1975 the company relocated to Alva, Clackmannanshire
in the heart of Scotland located at the foot of the Ochil Hills.
Bill passed away in 1994 however the company to this day remains
in the ownership of the family.
The company’s General Manager for 18 years was Ken Russell who
retired from the business in September 2006 and was succeeded
by David Haswell.
The same company ethos has continued with personal contact
and high level of quality service being our prime concern
along with cost effectiveness.
