"As a young and small but rapidly growing business with a top flight product range, getting our products into the marketplace and to customers is of key importance," says Dene Godfrey, technical director, MGS MicroPure.
"Our internal resources are principally technical and manufacturing so aligning ourselves with a first class distributor is essential to our continuing development.
"In reviewing the options, Univar was the obvious choice.
"In addition to its comprehensive distribution network, the company is specialised in our sector, understands our product base and our end-users.
"Importantly, the fact that we are a relatively small business at present makes no difference to the level of service Univar provides us with".

In addition the company provides fully integrated product distribution and support services to a wide customer base throughout the UK.
