Yesterday I visited the Apeks Marine factory in Blackburn, UK and met with Peter Greenwell the sales manager for a tour to see how Apeks regulators are made – wow! what a factory! I am sure most divers do not realise just how much goes into that piece of live sustaining equipment – thanks Peter. We shall be sharing some photos of the tour on our website soon.
