The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise are the UK’s highest accolade for business success, with Her Majesty the Queen personally approving the winners.

Proof of commitment
Commenting on the news, the company’s managing director Robert Campbell told Fire Safety Matters: “It’s a tremendous feeling for the company to have been honoured in this way. To have now received such recognition three times is extremely special. Winning our first Queen’s Award was a great achievement. The second, and now the third such accolade proves our commitment to what we do and acknowledges the efforts of everyone involved in the business.”
