Sash UK Enjoys Night of Glory at Prestigious Award Ceremony

Friday the 13th proved not to be unlucky for everyone when Sash UK scored a hat trick at the Rotherham Business Awards 2006, including the prestigious Overall Winner Award.

The Yorkshire based PVCu manufacturer was presented with trophies for both the 'Excellence in Business' and 'Innovation in Business' categories as well as being crowned the ‘Overall Winner' at the ceremony organised by the Rotherham Chamber of Commerce, held at Magna this October.

After visiting the company's headquarters in Barnsley the Judges said, "In a competitive and saturated market, Sash show real growth, profitability, efficient production, good customer and supplier relationships, innovative product design and top-class man management. They are now exporting to the USA which shows that this company can develop new products and develop into new markets with an offering that customers really want."

"It's wonderful to be acknowledged by the local business community in this way", said Joint Managing Directors, David Ruzicka and Stephen Morrell. "It shows true recognition of all the hard work that all our employees at Sash have put in over the years. And it is an even bigger compliment given the standard of the other businesses up for nomination," they added.

"As anyone in the industry will know, it has been a very turbulent climate in which to do business," commented David and Stephen. "But we have always stood by our ethos to continuously challenge industry standards. And it is by doing so that we will continue to weather the storms so that when the cloud breaks we can bask in the sun and enjoy the accolades of our peers, on what is a momentous occasion in Sash history," the delighted MD’s added.

As a result of its local triumph, Sash has now been invited by the Rotherham Chamber to take part in the Regional Business Awards later this year.
