Leading Manufacturer of Knitted Mesh Filtration and Cleaning Materials
Involved In Acquisition

KnitMesh Ltd announced in March 2002 that it had acquired Britnit Ltd the Essex, UK based manufacturer of knitted mesh filtration and cleaning materials. KnitMesh has a similar background to Britnit and the acquisition has proved to be an excellent fit within the existing business. Both KnitMesh and Britnit have nearly 60 years combined experience in the manufacture of knitted wire products. Britnit supply high quality cleaning products, primarily pot scourers to the retail and wholesale hardware markets.

Since March 2002 work has been ongoing to integrate the two businesses which has led to the closure of the Britnit office and manufacturing facility in Basildon, Essex. Production has now been successfully and seamlessly transferred to the KnitMesh factory at Greenfield in North Wales.
