Formula Air Group Acquires Dust Spares Ltd.

Formula Air Group is taking an important step in expanding its presence in the United Kingdom with the acquisition of Dust Spares Ltd., a well‑established UK company recognised for its strong online platform, fast delivery capabilities, and technical expertise. This strategic move reinforces Formula Air’s long‑term commitment to the UK market. As part of the integration, Formula Air will expand its UK warehouse operations and establish local customer service capabilities, enabling us to support customers more directly. This development will enhance local distribution, shorten lead times, and enable faster delivery options—including next‑day delivery on selected items—further elevating our service level in the region.

A Proven UK Leader in Online Sales and Customer Service
Founded 25 years ago, Dust Spares has grown from an installation company into a highly efficient wholesale distributor of dust extraction components via its advanced online platform, www.dustspares.co.uk, serving a large base of end‑users with all the spare parts you need for your dust extraction installation:

Fast and reliable delivery
Strong technical expertise
A highly rated online customer experience

Customers can expect:

Expansion of the local UK warehouse, enabling Formula Air to serve customers directly from Kibworth
Improved lead times and delivery performance, including next‑day delivery on selected items as operations scale
Enhanced local product support and technical expertise, supported by the combined strengths of both teams
Local customer service, ensuring faster responses and more personalised support

Strategic and Cultural Alignment

From the outset, both companies recognised a strong alignment in strategy and values. Dust Spares’ focus on operational efficiency, reliability, and respect—towards colleagues, the community, and the environment—mirrors the core principles of Formula Air. This shared foundation provides a solid platform for future growth in the UK market.

Benefits for Formula Air Customers in the UK

The acquisition strengthens Formula Air’s ability to support customers locally and more effectively. In the coming months, integration efforts will focus on combining Dust Spares’ online expertise with Formula Air’s product portfolio and operational capabilities.

Benefits for Dust Spares Customers

Dust Spares customers also benefit from the acquisition. By joining the Formula Air Group, Dust Spares are able to expand its product range significantly, integrating Formula Air’s broader portfolio of components and solutions. This allows Dust Spares to offer a more complete and competitive assortment to its existing customer base.

Looking Ahead

During the first year, Formula Air will focus on learning from Dust Spares’ highly successful webshop model, applying best practices to strengthen the Formula Air online platform and exploring opportunities to replicate these digital improvements in other countries. This shared digital expertise will support our ambition to deliver a seamless online experience across the entire group. Also the group aims to serve Formula Air UK customers - including contractors and OEMs - directly from the Kibworth warehouse by 2027.
