Every tool, moulding and filter that BEC produces is made on site in Hampshire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our mould tools are crafted from P20 tool steel from Buckinghamshire. Once they arrive at BEC these steel blocks are carefully designed and machined on site to produce the mould tools from which the plastic parts are made. From here, the tools are moved into our mouldshop and either plastic mouldings or filters are made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBecoming a member of Made in Britain highlights one of the aspects of BEC that we\u2019re most proud of. We\u2019re a British company, and everything we produce comes out of one site in Hampshire. Carrying out all tooling and moulding on site allows for easier production, competitive pricing for our customers and streamlined communication. Being able to use the instantly recognisable Made in Britain trademark will make it clear to customers that we\u2019re proud to produce everything on shore in Britain\u201d <em>Katie Reed, Commercial Director, BEC Group.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find out more about Made in Britain <a href=\"https:\/\/www.madeinbritain.org\/\"><em>here<\/em>.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sedex Membership<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.becgroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Sedex-Logo.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5527\" style=\"width:301px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.becgroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Sedex-Logo.png 900w, https:\/\/www.becgroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Sedex-Logo-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/www.becgroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Sedex-Logo-768x427.png 768w, https:\/\/www.becgroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Sedex-Logo-500x278.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>As part of our drive towards continuous improvement we have become members of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sedex.com\/\">Sedex<em>.<\/em><\/a><em> <\/em>This comprehensive platform allows businesses to gain visibility of their supplier\u2019s critical data relating to sustainability, environmental performance and working conditions throughout their supply chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By tracking and sharing data efficiently with our customers we aim to support them in improving their overview of each link in their supply chain, and how it can be improved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sedex began life over twenty years ago as a way for members to easily share supply chain and operational data.
