Alloy Wire International (AWI), a specialist supplier of round, flat and profile wire, has sent more than GBP 650,000 of material to customers in the subcontinent over the last twelve months – a 50% increase since the end of the Covid-19 pandemic.
This now accounts for nearly 10% of the firm’s overseas sales.
During that time, the Kolkata-based representative has built up a strong customer base that is now rapidly expanding thanks to increased interest from spring, valve and fastener manufacturers serving high-end automotive, aerospace and energy sectors, such as oil and gas.
These clients are looking for full traceability, repeatable quality and quick industry-lead times, as ordering is increasingly becoming shorter to meet just-in-time requirements.
Alloy Wire International, which recently took on an additional 8000 sq. ft. unit near its headquarters in the West Midlands, manufactures round, flat and profile wire in 62 Exotic alloys, such as Inconel, Monel, Hastelloy, Nimonic and Waspaloy.
