"Nevertheless we were all excited by the BOGE proposition and with a small and highly motivated team we introduced the award winning 'S' series screw compressor range".
" The 'S' series was a new design and build product range from top to bottom".
"The design concept embodied the very best in state-of-the-art thinking that incorporated key features like horizontal pre-separation, a patented GM drive system and a self-learning electronic energy saving controller." German design and manufacture provided the perfect quality proposition and Taylor's decision to introduce a free five year warranty (a UK first) not only underpinned the quality proposition but also differentiated and gave instant credibility.
* Moving forward - "The business grew rapidly from three UK sites and via a growing distribution network".
