Commencing in July 1988 BF Machinery grew through the recruitment of key personnel and strategic acquisitions. The initial structure of the company was the sales and service division (BF Machinery) and engineering division focused on repair and refurbishment (CBF Engineering). Over time, as the BF Group expanded the number of industries being serviced, the company invested in a purpose built and outfitted 1800m2 engineering workshop capable of managing a wide range of engineering projects.
The BF Group initial specialty, and still an important area of today’s business, is the plastics industry. Through a range of strategic alliances with international brands such as Sandretto, Alpine, AFS and Borch and acquisitions of specialists such as Remtron International, the company established itself as the market leader in maintenance, repair, refurbishment and sales of plastics production equipment.
Gradually over several years, the BF Group has diversified from plastics to mining, aquaculture, power and utilities, oil and gas and through the acquisition of Axial Filter Systems and strategic alliances with groups such as PX pumps and Pentair / Fairbanks Morse, we have extended our expertise to cover a wide range of industries.
In 2010, the BF Group rebranded itself to reflect its acquisition of Axial Filters and became BFA. |
