A NEW design of washing machine created by a Suffolk-based businessman is set to hit the high streets.
Entrepreneur and inventor Martin Meyerscough came up with his futuristic-looking concept, aimed at taking the strain out of loading and unloading your wash, after chatting to a washing machine repairman.
Features of his patent-protected machine include a large-scale aluminium door built to a high engineering specification and a removable drum which doubles as a washing basket and can be taken in and out with ease. The drum sits at an angle to make it easier to get in and out.
The headquarters of Titan Washing Machine Ltd is at Framlingham Technology Centre, although the models themselves are being made in the town of Zhongshan, west of Hong Kong.
