SEMA announces Supplier Award winners

This year it was Storax that scooped the top honour with Moresecure as runner up, reversing last year’s rankings.

Congratulating the winners, SDG chairman Jonathan Bennett said: "I’d like to thank Storax, Moresecure and all of our suppliers for their tremendous support. We are really dependent on our suppliers delivering excellence of both product and service.

"2014 has been a milestone for the SDG. Every member has been rigorously audited against 25 measureable checkpoints by independent QA assessors, QCS International. Over 40% of our members scored over 80% and 12 of our number scored over 90%. Yes we lost a couple of members along the way but that’s a good thing as our QA system is robust! However, we’ve gained three more so a big welcome to Stodec Products Ltd, PD Industrial and The Racking Installation Co. Ltd.

"When purchasing a storage system you can now easily check on a storage firm’s quality credentials, by asking to see the supplier’s SDG Audit Certificate. The certificate is proof that the leg work has been done for you. With an SDG member, the correct health and safety standards are in place, they use only trained labour, storage is correctly designed and the firm carries appropriate insurance.”
