A1deSIGNS has been awarded accreditation from Safecontractor for its commitment to achieving excellence in health and safety.

Safecontractor is a leading third party accreditation scheme which recognises very high standards in health and safety management amongst UK contractors.

Employing 15 people, A1deSIGNS is principally involved in the retail and construction sectors, specialising in the Sign Making, Neon Signs and Cold Cathode Lighting industries. A1deSIGNS have worked with a wide variety of clients from large multinationals and blue-chip companies through to small independents.

The company’s application for Safecontractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business.

“As a company we are always striving to improve everything we do, whether that is through the quality of our products and services or through the safety of our staff. We feel this is a good step forward as a company in showing our commitment to our staff’s welfare.” – Andy Nash (Managing Director)

Safecontractor accreditation will enhance the company’s ability to attract new contracts and its commitment to safety will be viewed positively by its insurers when the company liability policy is up for renewal.

Safecontractor is applicable to most sectors although it is particularly relevant to food manufacture, property, facilities management, retail and leisure sectors, all of which are big users of contracted services.

John Kinge, technical director of Safecontractor said, “Major organisations simply cannot afford to run the risk of employing contractors who are not able to prove that they have sound health and safety policies in place.”

“More companies need to understand the importance of adopting good risk management in the way that A1deSIGNS has done. The firm’s high standard has set an example which hopefully will be followed by other companies within the sector.

Safecontractor plays a vital role in supporting our clients in meeting their compliance needs, whilst working with their contractors as they progress through the accreditation process.”

Under the Safecontractor scheme, businesses undergo a vetting process which examines health and safety procedures and their track record for safe practice. Those companies meeting the high standard are included on a database, which is accessible to registered users only via a website.

Client-organisations who sign up to the scheme can access the database, enabling them to vet potential contractors before they even set foot on site. These clients agree that, as users of the scheme, they will engage only those who have received accreditation.

Over 210 major, nation-wide businesses, from several key sectors, have signed up to use the scheme when selecting contractors for services such as building, cleaning, maintenance, refurbishment or electrical and mechanical work.

Finally in our new factory

We have now moved into our new factory, which took quite some time, first of all because we want to get the place right before we moved in and also so it didn’t interrupt production for all our customers. Our new larger factory will allow us to increase our production capabilities and improve our product range.
