IS OUR BOND

Entrusted with a clandestine licence to fulfil , John Morfield undertakes a covert operation to safeguard the Crown Jewels and Scotland ’ s liquid gold . As the firm ’ s untold story emerges , brace yourself for an excursion into a realm of secrets , where our nation ’ s treasures dance on the precipice of contamination and salvation ...
The name ’ s Morfield . John Morfield . For more than 60 years , John Morfield has served the Teesside area and beyond with filtration products . Yet few are privy to the scope of its operations – some so covert they were previously on a strictly need-to-know basis .
Behind the scenes , John Morfield has played an uncredited role in safeguarding one of the most valuable and iconic treasures on British soil , the Crown Jewels . But who or what is John Morfield protecting them from ? The threat isn ’ t a frizzy orange-haired assailant with an eye patch and a conjoining banana-shaped scar . This time , it ’ s something far more subtle – airborne contaminants !
The Crown Jewels – composed of crowns , sceptres , orbs and ceremonial regalia crafted from precious metals , gemstones and historic materials – are susceptible to deterioration from the super-villains that are dust , pollutants , humidity and fluctuating temperatures . Given their immense historical and monetary value , it ’ s imperative to create a controlled environment through air and gas filtration that draws pollutants directly from the air .
Think of these air filtration systems as the cool piece of spy tech employed in any James Bond motion picture ,
