New business opportunities for Distrupol after successful Medtec UK 2008
The Medtec UK 2008 (13-14 February in Birmingham) has been a major success for polymer distributor and service provider Distrupol. This was Distrupol’s first time exhibiting at the event where it generated over 60 new sales leads, three of which have already resulted in tool trials of polymers supplied by the company. Distrupol believes the excellent response at the show was largely down to the availability of its own Development Engineers, and those of its material suppliers, to discuss product development opportunities and polymer solutions at the stand.
Recognising the UK’s role as a centre for the design and development of new products, Distrupol is tailoring its presence at PDM 08 (Telford, 15th-17th April 2008) to reflect all of the polymer distributor’s development and technical expertise. The company’s exhibit, one of the biggest at this year’s PDM show, can be found in Hall 2, stands numbers J30 and K14.
