Jul 03 2012
Powder characterisation specialist Freeman Technology is delighted to be awarded the 2012 Queen’s Award for Enterprise (International Trade), having previously received the 2007 Queen’s Award for Innovation.
“Freeman Technology’s first Queen’s Award in 2007 celebrated our development of the FT4 Powder Rheometer and the unique contribution it makes to understanding powders – and to supporting manufacturing industry in its drive to improve efficiency and productivity,” said Managing Director, Tim Freeman. “Five years on, not only do we have a proven instrument, we have unparalleled real-world experience, expertise and applications knowledge that supports the use of the system. It is this combination that is proving so powerful to companies across the globe, and which has driven our international business growth, resulting in a doubling of our export sales in just three years. ”
Paying tribute to colleagues around the world, Tim Freeman confirmed that 2012 is proving to be a highly significant year for Freeman Technology, with a great deal of planning and development coming to fruition.
“Winning this Queen’s Award in the International Trade category really affirms Freeman Technology’s establishment in world markets and reflects the commitment and hard work of all our teams and partners” he said. “Ever since the launch of the FT4 Powder Rheometer more than 8 years ago, strong sales have been supported directly in Europe and the United States, and through distribution partners in Japan. Now with our experience and expertise across many different applications, we are successfully entering many new markets where the FT4 is helping to solve the same problems that challenge powder processors the world over.”
In the past 12 months the company has established a new direct operation in North America and extended its distribution partnerships to include China, India, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand, all underpinned by a move last year to larger premises in the UK, extending the scope for manufacturing and support.
