A WARRINGTON company has benefited from the expansion of the European Union by winning a contract to distribute its air cleaning systems in Cyprus.

Part of the Fenchurch Environmental Group Ltd, Aircare Europe supplies to bars, restaurants, factories and hospitals.

Currently on the Passport to Export programme, the company works closely with Business Link Warrington to develop its export strategy.

General manager Rolf Easto said: "We have been looking at Cyprus for some time as the size of the market suits us.

"There are good links between Cyprus and the UK, and the two countries share similarities in many aspects. Cyprus' accession to the EU will provide ample opportunities and we're excited about the prospect for our business there."

Total sales obtained in the initial three months have reached £15,000.
