Harrisons has officially acquired the business and assets of Ecotech (Europe) Ltd, a Coventry-based manufacturer known for producing high-quality wet and dry nonwoven wipes for distributors and wholesalers.
As a leading manufacturer of nonwoven wipes with a 134-year history, Harrisons have built a reputation as one of the industry’s most trusted nonwoven wipes manufacturers. By joining forces with Ecotech, they’re opening up new opportunities for future growth, combining their strong market position and track record for quality, expertise and reliability with Ecotech’s existing brand equity and focus on sustainability.
This marks a significant milestone for the family firm as it’s the first time they’ll be manufacturing and distributing wet wipes. With this expansion, they’re looking forward to offering an even broader range of products while maintaining the same high standards of quality and customer service that define Harrison’s.
As Stephen Harrison, Managing Director of Harrisons explains: "Expanding our manufacturing capacity means we’ll have even greater flexibility to meet our customers’ needs. We are committed to taking a customer-first approach to the change of ownership, and the immediate priority is to optimise the level of service delivered to all Harrisons and Ecotech customers."
"This exciting development comes shortly after we announced our new logistics partnership with Magnum Logistics, taking our supply chain to the next level through BREEAM-certified sustainable warehousing, access to up to 10,000 pallet spaces, and enhanced stock management technology."
"This is a pivotal moment for Harrisons, marking a key milestone in our growth strategy, and a significant development in our 134-year history. It’s clear that Ecotech’s range complements our existing portfolio of products, so I’m excited by what’s next. I really believe that, together, we can set new standards in wiping," concludes Stephen.
Jason Lippitt, Director of Ecotech, added: “Joining Harrisons is great news, and the team is already looking forward to the new chapter. Harrisons is a family business that is synonymous with the very highest standards in the industry, and we’re ready to roll up our sleeves and seize the opportunities this new platform for growth presents.”
"With this acquisition, Ecotech will now be registered as Harrison Wiping Limited. We’re looking forward to an exciting future and can’t wait to bring even more innovative solutions to our customers."
