A YORKSHIRE chemicals firm is on course to more than double its global sales in the next five years, after signing a large contract in China.
The Airedale Chemical Company, which is based in Cross Hills, West Yorkshire, has secured a five-year distribution agreement with The Chengxing Group, the largest manufacturer of phosphoric acid and phosphate products in Asia.
Airedale, which employs 42 staff, has also gained a multi-million pound banking facility from The Royal Bank of Scotland to support its expansion plans.
