Company Description

Over the last forty years, a number of companies have come together to form Hartle IGE Ltd, a first class manufacturer and distributor of an exceptional range of industrial and workshop equipment for the office, factory, warehouse, workshop or garage. In fact IGE stands for Industrial and Garage Equipment, which broadly encompasses the scope of our activities. Although we now trade simply as IGE, we have retained the original company names of some of the forming companies as brand names, which are respected in their specific fields both in the UK and overseas.

Through this amalgamation of companies - each a specialist in a particular field – IGE is able to offer a mammoth range of products which cover the needs of the modern work place. Our categories broadly cover maintenance, servicing, fluids handling, materials handling, fluid control, storage, health and safety, and distribution. So you’ll find everything from pumps, barrels, drums and hand pumps, to oil drainers, sheet metal equipment, bench presses, and hand tools. And the best thing is that our extensive range of products keep growing: our long history in fluid handling, garage equipment and sheet metal working equipment enables us to design, manufacture and distribute innovative equipment for our UK and worldwide customers.

IGE maintains a policy of supplying simple, practical and safe products. All of our great products are available for delivery in UK and can be exported throughout the world. Our full range including product information, specifications and prices can be found by visiting the IGE website.

If you need help in finding the right solution for your application, don’t hesitate to give us a call. Our friendly, helpful representatives are always happy to receive your enquiries and answer your questions. So for an excellent range of garage and industrial equipment at sensible prices, look no further than IGE!
