Dando Drilling, the rig manufacturer and equipment supplier increases domestic sales of drilling consumables.

In the last 5 years the breakdown of Dando’s sales has shifted from in excess of 90% outside of the EU to over 30% of business now being conducted in the UK and Europe. Much of this boost in domestic growth is partly the result of increased demand for Geotechnical drill rigs, but an equally significant growth area has been the consumables market. Dando now not only manufactures tooling for its own rigs, but also imports and supplies products including rock bits, geotechnical core bits, drilling fluids and additives and coring equipment among others.

Martin Fitch-Roy, Managing Director:

Traditionally we have regarded the consumables market as a service to existing customers ancillary to our core rig manufacturing business, but as this sector grows in importance we are increasingly committed to providing the resources necessary to Adrian Richardson and his team to take this exciting product range to the market-at-large. The potential is staggering.
