Palintest Ltd, a Gateshead-based manufacturer of water analysis technologies, is delighted to have recently won the North East Exporters’ Award.
The company was nominated in two categories, winning ‘Export Team of the Year’ and a runner up in ‘Conquering New Markets.’ Palintest was then named overall winner of the North East England Exporters’ Award.
The Awards recognise the efforts of companies that, through exporting achievements, are making a huge contribution to both the regional and UK economy. They also acknowledge and celebrate the strength and diversity of North East exporting.
“Winning this award is a testament to the effort our team makes in growing and supporting our business around the world,” commented Palintest’s Managing Director Dave Sidlow. “We’re a highly ambitious company with a proud history making water analysis technologies suitable for many applications and we’ve embraced the challenges and opportunities that exporting can offer a UK business.”
Palintest has invested heavily in the structure required to support exports, with regional hubs in Australia, the Middle East, China and the USA. Recent successes have most notably included sales into China, where the company has grown its business over 200% in the past two years, making it Palintest’s single largest export market.
