Liverpool-based Yuken Europe has appointed Diprax to market and sell its range of hydraulic systems and components in northern Spain. Japanese-owned Yuken designs and manufactures a wide range of high-quality, low-energy pumps and valves for use in various industry sectors.

General manager Mannie Saunders said that the firm’s products play “a crucial role” in the manufacturing process, helping to generate, control and transmit power through the use of hydraulic control. “This is a key deal for Yuken Europe.

We see great potential in Spain, and we have already enjoyed success there through our existing deal with Servitec in Seville, serving southern Spain.”

Diprax, which is based in San Sebastian, also builds its own hydraulic and pneumatic systems.

It has more than 30 years of experience distributing and designing hydraulic and pneumatic systems; it is also looking at setting up a repair service.
