About The Company
Evans Vanodine International PLC is an established family owned company based in Preston which exports cleaning products to over 62 countries worldwide. Set up in 1919 by chemist, William Charles Evans, now over 90 years and four family generations later, it operates from a modern 100,000 square foot factory on a 5 acre site.
For over thirty years, the Microbiology Laboratory has supported the company’s products by providing test results proving effectiveness against harmful bacteria and fungi, tested by six qualified and highly experienced microbiologists.
