V-TUF in Southampton — Industrial Cleaning Equipment Hub

V-TUF in Southampton — industrial cleaning equipment for Hampshire

V-TUF supplies M-Class and H-Class dust extractors, industrial pressure washers, hot-water cleaning systems and heavy-duty industrial vacuums to construction contractors, facilities management companies, fleet and port operators, the automotive trade, the marine trade, and the mobile valeting trade across Southampton and Hampshire. Southampton is the UK's premier port city — the Port of Southampton (operated by Associated British Ports) is the UK's busiest container port and number one cruise terminal, contributing £2.5bn annually to the UK economy. The Solent Freeport is expected to attract £1bn of investment and create 16,000 local jobs. Major city centre regeneration programmes — the £132m Bargate Quarter, the Maritime Gateway scheme and the £280m Leisure World redevelopment — make Southampton one of the most active construction markets in the South.

V-TUF equipment is in daily use across construction sites, port and logistics operations, automotive workshops, boatyards, commercial properties and the mobile valeting trade throughout Southampton and the wider Hampshire region.
