Fortress Safety Has Been Honoured With the King's Award for Enterprise for International Trade
Announced on 6th May, the Award recognises Fortress Safety’s excellence in international trade, with outstanding growth in overseas sales over the last three years, alongside growth in total turnover and net profits. This is the result of the hard work and dedication of all our staff at our head office in Wolverhampton and our other locations in the United States, Europe, and APAC, as well as the great support of our customers and channel partners.
With market-leading products, Fortress is well placed to keep people safe not just in the UK but in workplaces all around the world. Thanks to our expertise we help customers navigate the complexity of safety regulations and support with the design of tailored solutions that not only protect people, but also ensure operations run as efficiently as possible.
