Six-figure investment into employee welfare

» ENDURANCE DOORS HAS SHOWN further evidence of its commitment to the utmost standards of employee health , safety and wellbeing .
Closely following the business ’ recent announcement that it has secured ISO 45001 accreditation , it has now confirmed a six figure investment into new infrastructure that will enhance the working environment for its production team .
Specifically , the manufacturer of solid , secure and stylish composite doors has installed a new extraction system at its main manufacturing facility in Brigg , North Lincolnshire .
The state-of-the-art system effectively removes fine dust particles , which are naturally created during the doorset production process , from the air .
As well as improving air quality , the system ’ s ability to remove this airborne dust , which has the potential to be combustible , also helps to increase fire protection .
Additional fire protection stems from
strategically located , fully automated isolation valves which can prevent the spread of fire through the system .
Plus , as a further benefit , the newly installed system also helps to reduce ambient noise levels .
Commenting , Stephen Nadin , managing director at Endurance Doors , said : “ As a business , Endurance owes its success to a multitude of different and diverse factors . “ This includes a belief in the highest standards , the use of advanced technology and the many uniquely human qualities of our teams such as their passion , pride and professionalism .
‘“ As our people genuinely are our greatest asset , we want to ensure they enjoy a working environment where they feel considered , valued and able to perform to the best of their abilities .
“ Our recent investment into the new extraction system at our Brigg factory underscores that commitment .”
