About us

Since founding in 1999, Fenco Group Ltd (now V-TUF) has built unmatched expertise in tough cleaning equipment, understanding exactly what customers expect from a brand that prides itself on reliability, toughness, & performance.

After relocating from South Africa to Lincoln, UK, Carl and Conrad Buchner saw an opportunity to fill a gap in the market for pressure washing equipment. What started as an importing and distribution business quickly evolved as the market demanded more - innovative solutions that met the changing needs of our customers.
 

After over a decade of growth, in 2018 the V-TUF brand was born, tying together the key ideals of safety, toughness and performance into an idustry-leading range of vacuums and pressure washers.

By now, the V-TUF brand was dominant across sectors like construction, automotive, and trade industries. Our growing network of distributors in the UK had proven that V-TUF was synonymous with top-tier equipment.

In 2017, we took action on industry concerns about harmful dust exposure in high-risk sectors. We developed the V-TUF M and H-class vacuums, rigorously tested to safeguard workers from dangerous respiratory hazards, making a genuine impact to worker safety.

2020 marked a pivotal year as we adapted to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. We reassessed our mission and the shifting demands of the industry, ensuring we remained relevant and responsive to both new market conditions and emerging needs.
 

As of now, the V-TUF market presence continues to grow with the support of retailers like Screwfix, Machine Mart & B&Q.
