Yorkshire green cleaning firm relocates to 32,000 sq ft site to cope with demand
A Hull green cleaning company has announced its relocation to a 32,000 sq ft site after a significant rise in demand for its eco-friendly products.
Located at the Marfleet Environmental Technology Park on Hedon Road, Bio-D has invested over £600k on the new site, doubling the amount of factory space compared to its previous premises.
Lloyd Atkin, managing director at Bio-D, said: “Over the past five years Bio-D has seen a rapid increase in sales and our previous site just didn’t have the space we needed to manufacture and store our products whilst upscaling.
“The new site means we can bring all our operations and storage back in-house and create more job opportunities across the city.”
Job vacancies at the new site range from factory and warehouse operatives, to sales managers.
Lloyd continued: “Now we’ve made the move to our new premises, we’re looking forward to having the space to grow as a business and continuing to create high quality cleaning products without compromising the planet.”
Founded in 1989, Bio-D is the UK’s largest manufacturer of environmentally responsible, vegan cleaning products, using plant-based and naturally derived ingredients.
The first UK cleaning consumer brand to use recycled plastics in its packaging, Bio-D creates all its bottled packaging from 100 per cent post-consumer plastic.
