UAP LTD NAMED HARDWARE COMPANY OF THE YEAR FOR SECOND YEAR RUNNING
» UAP LTD HAS ANNOUNCED its second consecutive win as Hardware Company of the Year at the 2024 National Fenestration Awards ; decided entirely by votes from industry peers .
The 2024 win reflects UAP ’ s sustained growth , which saw an increase in revenue by over a third in the year ending April 2024 . This expansion was driven by the strategic acquisitions of Security Hardware in December
2022 , Maher London in January 2023 , and by organic growth which included the launch of a new business line , Fire Door Maintenance ( FDM ).
The award win underscores UAP ’ s dedication to driving progress in the industry , focussing on products and services that prioritise fire safety , security , and innovation .
Steve Cox , Managing Director at UAP Ltd said : “ Winning the
Hardware Company of the Year award for the second-year running is especially meaningful because it ’ s awarded by those who know the industry best – our customers , partners , and peers . We ’ re always going to continue setting new standards of excellence and to keep innovating for a safer , more secure built environment .”
