Lots of News!

Well we have had a very busy week...

Monday - Wednesday two members of our Technical team were in Germany visiting our new German distributors Inprona Water Treatment! The visit went very well and we hope this is the start of a long and happy partnership.

Today is also 'Dress Down Friday' in the office - every last Friday a month from now on will be the B & V Dress Down Day. Each employee donates a pound to charity to take part!

We have also just been certified to ISO 14001 after our final audit on 20th and 21st July! This is great news for us and we are very happy with this achievement!

Safety Data Sheets

As you may or may not be aware there are major changes in the legislation governing the production of safety data sheets for chemicals. This is to ensure all safety data sheets look the same throughout Europe. Kathy, one of our chemists, has been working hard over the last 6 months to update all of the B & V safety data sheets in line with this legislation. Considering that we have over 600 products, this is a mammoth task!
We now also have the ability to produce safety data sheets in a large number of foreign languages, which is extremely useful as our export of chemicals is expanding at a rapid rate!
You can be sure with B & V that all the data sheets we provide will be in line with current legislation - ensuring constant compliance with European and UK guidelines.
