t was fulfilling for us to witness normality again at the CHEMUK exhibition this year. The NEC Birmingham had its buzz back, and the sound of a busy hall was a positive sign for Zoedale, who shared a stand with OEM Automatic Ltd. They showcased some of their most popular valves suitable for the chemical production market at this year’s event. Valve partner and manufacturer, Omal, flew in from Italy to be part of CHEMUK 2021.

A few words from Omals’ Christian D’ella, export sales manager, about CHEMUK: “After a long period of absence from the international fairs due to covid 19, the CHEMUK fair was a pleasant surprise for me.
In addition to the presence of international producers such as Omal Spa and English customers, I felt again the experience of the human contact in sales.
Thanks again to OEM for their support in developing a great business together with Zoedale!”
OEM Automatics’ pressure and flow representative, George Tyler, joined the stand to showcase a range of their hygienic pressure sensors and flow products suitable for the chemical production industry.
