AMPS Ltd, All Media Pigments and Sales, was formed in 1995 and began trading in January 1996. Initially acting only as sales agent for the company Magnox Incorporated, located in Pulaski, USA.

The first year concentrated on introducing AMPS to Magnox customers and identifying our role as a Magnox sales agent, however, it soon became apparent that there was a requirement for AMPS to offer other products. As a result, AMPS formed relationships raw material manufacturers including Noveon, Teijjn DuPont and more recently Powdertech, we also work closely with manufacturing facilities in Korea and Japan.

 AMPS is the worldwide distribution centre for the MUE Industry in Korea, offering a range of barium ferrite powders for the ink making and coatings industries and other specialised users.
