UK cleaning equipment businesses Killis and Motorscrubber - both founded and led by the Killi family - have announced a demerger to enable each business to pursue its own visions.

Founded by Tibor László Killi in 1964 as T.L. Killis & Sons, the company has in recent years been led by his sons, Tibor and Imre. Tibor Killi has been responsible for the Killis equipment distribution business, while Imre Killi has developed the Motorscrubber machine manufacturing brand.

"The decision to demerge empowers both companies to refine their strategies, drive innovation, and better serve their customers," said a statement."This strategic change allows us to sharpen our focus and invest more deeply in innovation, enabling us to deliver even more game-changing products to our customers," said Imre Killi.

"It also empowers us to make faster, more decisive choices on key growth and investment opportunities, while scaling up our manufacturing capabilities to meet increasing global demand."

Tibor Killi added: "This is a strategic milestone for us means we can focus more directly on our distribution strengths and Killis own Genius brand. We are unlocking new growth opportunities while reaffirming our dedication to our manufacturing partners and customers with industry-leading products and support."
