bmi Group celebrate their 15th Anniversary of manufacturing walking floors.

The Waste & Recycling Industry in Ireland has come a long way in recent times, and is now beginning to rival the UK in terms of supplier coverage and quality. We at the bmi group have seen a marked increase in customer queries and subsequent orders as confidence grows within Irish companies. With this in mind, we are very happy to announce the appointment of a dedicated Sales Development Manager for the Irish Market, David Kidd. David comes to us with a wealth of sales experience and has already been busy getting the miles under his belt as he makes himself known to potential customers.

Irish hauliers are still primarily tipper users, with customers paying particular attention to the aggregate & scrap models within our recently launched tipper range. These traditional trailers will always be a prominent feature of Irish hauling, however, David has witnessed an increase in walking floor enquiries as companies begin to harness the benefits of Biomass.

2015/16 was a particularly buoyant year within the Irish market, across the waste & recycling range, and with the successful introduction of our tipper range, we anticipate an increase on sales of at least 20% in the next financial year. The ongoing weakening of the pound is also a contributing factor for Irish buyers as they seek to find the best value for their Euro.
