- Power of One - Consolidating 17 brands into one lean, scalable operating model
- A World of Motion – Expanding product, service and geographical reach
2023: Strengthened Group governance and reporting frameworks, including whistleblowing line and updated risk processes.
2023: Full external assessment of ecommerce, digital and data capabilities, resulting in renewed strategy and plans including capital investment to deliver material improvement and scalable change with planned launch in H2 25.
2023: Reduced like-for-like carbon emissions by 23%, converted over half the fleet to electric/hybrid, and achieved zero RIDDOR incidents.
2024: Successful rebranding and roll-out of the own brand, FT Pro product range.
2024: Significant improvement to the customer service with stock availability increasing from 85% to 97% and customer complaints reducing by over 70%.

2024: Completed the full rebranding to ‘One Flowtech’, consolidating 17 brands to one across UK, Ireland and Benelux and implementing a new, simplified customer value proposition to market.
2024: In parallel to the rebranding, implemented a simplified, leaner and scalable federated operating model to unlock the full potential and efficiency of the Group including material improvement and investment in people capabilities and experience at all levels of the company.
2024: Acquired Thorite out of administration, restoring profitability within three months and unlocking >£20m incremental revenue opportunity.
2024: Delivered procurement savings of £1m and reduced stock by £3m while maintaining a 97% fulfilment rate.
