Qualflex restructured but hose quality remains
Published:  01 June, 2007

Qualflex is a name instantly recognised as a high quality manufacturer of flexible braided hoses and claim to be the largest UK manufacturer of flexible tap connectors. Originally launched in 1993 as an independent body within the control of parent company Hydralectric, a recent corporate restructuring now leaves Qualflex as a brand name within the organisation.

Hydralectric Chairman Colin Hayward emphasises that the manufacturing excellence associated with the Qualflex brand will remain and indeed should be enhanced by the strong reinvestment programme in operations consisting of some £150,000.

Production capacity has been doubled by the recent introduction of semi-automated machinery and new computer software has increased the efficiency and operating scope of the 58 staff employed at the company’s Byfleet base.

Not only is the company active here in the UK but also 10 per cent of its turnover is produced from export sales to such countries as China, the USA, Holland and France.
