Weiss UK has announced a record year for 2008, with the UK turnover exceeding £500,000 for the first time since starting trading direct to the UK market in 2001.
The company is the UK subsidiary of Weiss GmbH, the European leader in indexing technology.
While the UK operation has seen a steady growth over the previous seven years, this has also been aided by the ongoing introduction of new generation products such as the LS280 high speed linear indexing system, the HP140 freely programmable handling unit and the CR Series range of heavy duty indexers.
Another important milestone for 2008 was the introduction of the CR Series heavy duty indexer range (pictured) into General Motor’s Vauxhall Plant in Ellesmere Port. Weiss GmbH received an order for over 30 of these freely programmable heavy duty units, a significant investment which is in addition to the record turnover achieved by the UK operation.
