“Our company are new Members to the GGF and I have found everyone extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I am a complete novice to glazing myself having moved from the police into my current position, but I am excited to learn as much as I can and would like to thank everyone at the GGF.”
The company is keen to progress in the GLASS Charter Merit Scheme, as it endeavours to progress on the improved safety standards, with the aim to achieve safety excellence.
Phil Pinnington, GGF Director of Health and Safety, commented: “It was a great pleasure to spend time with Abigail and to see the tremendous commitment that exists within the company to be the best and the safest.
“I have seen many businesses show enthusiasm but become disillusioned when a campaign doesn’t turn out the way it was expected.
“I don’t believe that this will be the case with Slimline and I look forward to seeing the work they put forward to progress further in the scheme.”
