Dosing Partners
Three houses make the dosing equipment we install and service. Brightwell Dosing, in England, builds chemical dilution, laundry, dishwash, and spray and foam systems, and exports to over seventy countries from offices in the United States, France, Germany and Spain.
Seko, of Rieti in Italy, has made dosing pumps and control systems since 1976 and acquired Brightwell in 2019, so two of the three names belong to one group. Dema Engineering, of Saint Louis, Missouri, was founded in 1956 and is still owned by the Deutsch family into its third and fourth generation.
