In August, Q8Oils visited Freddy Products Ltd, the manufacturer of the highly regarded and world-renowned Freddy range of coolant and swarf recycling vacuums. 

Supplying products all over the world, from America, over Europe to Australia, Freddy are known for offering quality products built with longevity and simplicity in mind and are highly regarded by some of the biggest household and industrial names in the world.

“We are constantly looking at how, as a company, we can offer the best possible solution for our customers.  From this, we are working on more bespoke projects than ever, solving specific issues, with innovative solutions” says Simon Hanmer, MD at Freddy Products, who took Mark Hayes and Catherine Macklam on a site tour.  Showcasing the manufacturing process, from sheet metal, through to assembly and testing, before welcoming them to view and get ‘hands on’ with the finished products in the showroom.  This offered the opportunity to get an overview of what could be done, with the bespoke work and new products now on offer.

Mark Hayes, Industrial Sales Manager UK & Ireland, said of the visit; “I am aware of the market leading reputation of Freddy Products and their usage in industry, and following my visit I now know that this commitment of excellence is built on bespoke manufacturing, product innovation and problem solving for the benefit of the customer.”

‘This was my first visit to Freddy Products and I was extremely impressed by not only the products and manufacturing process but in the whole company ethos.  Simon made it quite clear that everything Freddy offers is with the customer in mind; from new bespoke equipment helping the customer solve a specific issue to refurbishing older machines ensuring that the customer gets value for money.  Q8Oils is proud to have a relationship with a company like Freddy Products and we are excited to explore it further and create new opportunities together.’ Catherine Macklam, UK Sales & Operations Manager.
