Farewell to Frank Baker

 

We recently said farewell to Frank Baker who retired after 19 years with Durham-Duplex and with many miles of grinding behind him. The Company is very sad to lose him and his grinding expertise. MD Charles Turner was delighted to mark Frank’s retirement the traditional way with a clock and all at DD wish him a long and happy retirement.  However, rest assured that whilst his skills will continue to be needed here he made a point of ensuring that these were passed on and we very grateful that his “tricks of the trade” (aka grinders magic) will continue so that we can still do all the difficult grinding jobs just without his hands on the wheel.

Frank – Thank you for your service.

Empack & Packaging Innovation NEC 25-26 May 2022

Bringing to an end a busy fortnight of shows across 3 countries was Empack and Packaging Innovation at the NEC where Durham-Duplex exhibited its full range of packaging, meat & food processing and safety hand knives to the UK market.  Paul Bottomley, UK Sales Director, said “Empack shows work well and we like the  package that they offer.  The organisers brought in a wide cross section  of the industry which made it an attractive event for us to do.  We have had a busy event schedule in 2022 but Empack and PI had been a particularly highlight in the diary for a while and we enjoyed our visit to NEC very much.  This year we  showed our expanded range of meat & poultry processing blades as well as examples of our range of tray knives and some new OLFA safety products.”
