Concentric  is a global expert in fluid engineering. The company succeeds by offering great value to end-users and OEMs. Our competitive edge comes from doing things better. 

We aim to cut the running costs for end users and to pass on benefits from high quality and prompt supply to our customers.

The investment case for Concentric comes from the spread of Concentric's business, its enthusiasm  to grow where the world market is growing, and from its relentless pursuit of excellence.

We specialise in things we are good at - producing diesel engine pumps and niche hydraulic systems.

 

Concentric grows by responding to the ever changing market, recognising the force of the environmental imperative and the strength of emerging markets 

Comprehensive environmental legislation is forcing manufacturers to adapt and improve their products. At the same time end-users are wanting more fuel efficiency.

The emerging market countries are sustaining fast growth rates. Now they are much larger as a share of the world economy, their growth is becoming ever more central to our wish to grow shareholder assets and earnings. Concentric now has a well established sales and manufacturing presence in Argentina, India and China.

 

Concentric grows its business both geographically and in end-markets, which protects shareholders from the different cycles within those end-markets and geographies Concentric serves four main end-markets - trucks, industrial applications, construction equipment and agricultural machinery. We serve more than 700 OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers with hydraulic products. We sell diesel engine pumps in all the main markets of the world, and to many of the major engine manufacturers. We see a wide spread of business as essential, to make sure we are where the growth  is, and to provide us with stability against regional market fluctuations
