Industrial Process News has named Seymour Manufacturing International its thermal solutions company of the year in recognition of its success over the past 12 months.

The company, based at Stafford Park in Telford, supplies thermal insulation products to some of the biggest companies in the UK, including supermarkets, plus the armed forces, and NHS. It also has a growing overseas client list.

In its November-December 2018 issue, the magazine says: “Seymour Manufacturing International have received this award in light of their first rate thermal manufacturing services for companies and clients across the board of industries, as well as the outstanding year they have had.

“Dedicated to constant innovation, SMI have unveiled a number of new products over recent years, including their highly impressive Bus-Stop product.

“One of the most highly discussed breakthroughs from SMI includes the innovative Green Door, an excellent replacement for the unwieldy and difficult to manoeuvre ‘night door.’

“Used by the likes of supermarket chain ASDA, the Green Door was ten years in the making and was devised to tackle the often heavy, difficult to lift and even injurious night doors that are commonly found in freezers and chillers.

“In comparison, the Green Door is much lighter, more ergonomic, easier to clean and of course energy saving too. Furthermore, the Green Doors are manufactured to be durable and long-lasting, with little maintenance required.”

SMI founder and managing director Brian Seymour said: “We pride ourselves on quality, customer service and innovation, and it is always gratifying when our achievements are recognised by others in the industry.”
