The UKF Group purchased the Coventry Site back in 2017 which was set up to service Eberspaecher/BMW (Eberspaecher now trading as Purem). The machinery’s sole purpose was to produce and supply the latest BMW Mini.

Due to this project ceasing production in Q1 2024, the family run business has strategised to side shift away from Tier 1 Automotive into alternative market sectors. Therefore, the decision has been made to sell the machinery and equipment.
