Biome Technologies plc announced trading update for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013. Total group revenues achieved for the first three months of the year were £0.4 million, compared to £4.6 million including contributions from Biotec.

The company anticipates performance this year to be second half weighted and consequently expect sales growth to increase in both divisions as the year progresses.

Stephen Baskerville, will be joining the group to head up the division as its Managing Director in August 2013. Stephen joins the business following some twenty years in technical and commercial roles within the industry, most recently as Director of Heating Products at Inductotherm Heating and Welding Limited.
