New acquisition for Christeyns
30 October 2024
WARRINGTON BASED Christeyns Food Hygiene (CFH) has acquired H&M Disinfection Systems, who design, manufacture and install cleaning and disinfection systems for the Food, Dairy and Beverage industries.

In operation since 1989, H&M’s modern manufacturing site near Northwich manufactures high quality pump sets, control panels and hygiene systems as well as bespoke units built to individual requirements. With over 30 years of experience in their respective fields the two firms have been partners for many years, providing a turn-key solution for effective cleaning and disinfection operations.
The acquisition will see the H&M facility continue to operate from their existing premises with all staff in place.
Christeyns Food Hygiene is highly regarded in the industry for its effective formulations of detergents and disinfectants for all applications in the food, dairy and beverage industries with customers from across a range of household consumer brands and suppliers to the UK’s food retailers. CFH is part of the Belgium owned Christeyns group.
“As we continue our growth strategy, we are delighted to confirm that H&M has become part of the Christeyns family. This acquisition will increase CFH’s engineering team and significantly bolster our service offering to clients across the UK and Eire,” commented CFH Operations Director & Managing Director, Andy Bethel.
“We regard H&M as an expert in its field, with a reputation for providing high quality, bespoke hygiene application equipment, the cornerstone of many customer’s food safety management systems. Already working with us as a partner, this was a natural move forward and will ensure a broader, highly enhanced service and health and safety offering for all our customers,” concludes Bethel.
The current CFH engineering offering for the optimisation of water, energy consumption, dosing, time and labour will be further strengthened, combining both chemical and engineering expertise including an expanded equipment portfolio, CIP sets, Washdown Systems, Bulk tanks and bespoke engineering.
Stephen Hall, H&M comments: “This is an exciting development for all parties with new opportunities and a further blending of skills and experience that will create a stronger engineering division overall.”
