Cheshire-based,

The business has supplied over 10 million MRO products to customers in a wide variety of industrial sectors including food and drink, household goods, pharmaceutical, chemical and electrical motors, and has supported over 1,000 customers with single-source supply products, reducing operational downtime and improving production efficiency, leading to significant cost savings.
William Simpson, managing director of Bearings and Drives, said: “Reviewing the statistics, we are looking at an overwhelming amount of components that we have supplied to our customers, each one playing its part in ensuring they are fully operational and achieving maximum line efficiency.
“Everyone in the business is extremely proud of what we have achieved over the last 25 years. The cornerstone of the company has been, and continues to be, our 24/7 service managed by our skilled team who are on hand to deliver advice and engineering solutions to our industrial client base.
“We are now excited for the future and what is to come following another major development this year after securing the sole distributorship of industry-leading
CeramicSpeed Insulate ball bearings, considerably strengthening our product offering and introducing to the UK market the latest technology in operational efficiency. They are custom-made for electrical motors and a guarantee against damage caused by stray currents. As a result, the Ceramicspeed ball bearings are becoming the preferred choice for many customers.”
