New customers have been lined up by a Bingley firm after it took part in a glass exhibition in Germany.

Penico Gauges, based in Keighley Road, has struck deals to provide mould gauge equipment used to make glass containers.

The company has also launched its website, at www.penico.com, in a bid to secure business worldwide.

Director David Booth said: "We are particularly pleased that our considerable investment in marketing is producing increased business across global markets.

"In recognition of our influence in the glass container industry we have been asked to publish a business feature in European Glass magazine."

Penico claims to be the market leader in the design, manufacture and calibration of mould gauge equipment worldwide.

The website has high-resolution images of the company's range of equipment.

The firm already has contracts throughout Europe, the USA and the Far East.
