Prestigious Manufacturing Award win for West Yorkshire Manufacturer

“We’re delighted to receive recognition of our passion for international trade. We’re very much a local company; a family-run business with a commitment to our local area and local community. However with more than 76% of our sales being sold around the world, it is clear that our horizons are far-reaching” says Co-Owner James Smith.

Since 1984 – when the company was founded – the international community has played a big part in A-SAFE’s success. With 16 international subsidiaries and 40 trusted partner resellers across the globe the company’s commitment to global trade is evident. “Whilst at our heart we are a proud Yorkshire manufacturer, this award epitomizes our focus on exploring wider markets to ensure business success; breaking down the guardrails (no pun intended) imposed by the global recession of 10 years ago, and the uncertainty posed by Brexit” adds Co-Owner Luke Smith.

The TMMX awards is recognized as having possibly the most rigorous judging process. It is not all about a nomination form; shortlisted entries are followed up with a series of judging panels where the business is put through its paces by a team of industry experts. Neither is it all about a trophy; participating in the process opens up the opportunity for entrants to gain valuable business improvement advice and industry-wide recognition for an organizations’ achievements, employees and business practice.

Being open to learn and develop is key to A-SAFE. Their constant innovation and product development from their state-of-the-art Design Centre drives the business forward. It is obvious that A-SAFE is excited for the future and the company us keen to pass on their enthusiasm and experience to others in their region, their country, and around the world.
