Pump firm applies for planning for new factory
3:32pm Wednesday 30th April 2008
Watson-Marlow Ltd has applied for planning permission to build a tubing factory on the edge of Falmouth.
The firm which develops and produces peristaltic pumps which have no valves, seals or glands, and the fluid contacts only the bore of the hose or tube, was recently named as Europe's number on positive displacement pump brand.
The planning application, which has been submitted to Carrick, is for a tubing factory, associated offices, 19 car parking spaces and services next to the building on the existing Watson-Marlow site in Bickland Water Road.
The plans are currently out for consultation which ends on May 21.
