Master Magnets Group “Highly Commended” For Midlands Business Award

If ever there were a way to celebrate over 30 years of successful trading, then it is with a regional award that recognises your business for its overseas exporting achievements and that is just what has happened to the Master Magnets group of companies after they were named a finalist in the Midlands Business Awards for the “Exporter of the Year” category.

Master Magnets incorporating Metal Detection Ltd. recently went up against four other businesses in the hope of being named the Midland’s greatest exporter of goods. The company’s core business is the design and manufacture of Industrial Magnetic Separation and Metal Detection Equipment, which they sell to over 21 countries around the globe.

With 17,000 square feet of factory space and 30 tonnes of overhead craneage capacity, Master Magnets is able to produce much larger and heavier equipment than many of its competitors and the strategic acquisition of Metal Detection Ltd has significantly helped to increase the company’s target markets.

Exports accounted for 55% of the firm’s turnover last year and with agents in 17 countries including the USA, Germany, India and Italy, it is something that is high on the company’s list of priorities. Mastermag and Metal Detection Ltd owe much of their overseas success to their fantastic global representation and also to the company websites, which were visited by over 36,000 different people last year, from over 150 different countries.
