Angel Guard has been named Scotland’s clinical washbasin company of the year at the 2021-22 Prestige Awards.
The Scotland Prestige Guide is read by more than 600,000 people, with nominees picked from reader suggestions.
The nominations are then reviewed by Prestige’s panel of judges, taking in consideration the facets of each business, service, product quality and innovation.
Angel Guard said it was chosen for its “personal touch, consistency of reviews and community feel”, with the judges noticing the “positive difference the company is making, especially during the turbulent times the world is going through”.
“We are delighted to receive this recognition and award, but the lives the Angel Guard units will save is the highest accolade our company could ever ask for,” said operations director Elaine Waggott.
Angel Guard participates in the Department of Work & Pension’s Kickstart scheme, which allows young workers aged 16-24 to gain work skills and experience.
Several Angel Guard workers are engaged in the manufacturing of its clinical washbasins.
Angel Guard washbasins are designed to reduce the spread of pathogens through splashing while improving hand-wash compliance through its monitoring system and WHO instructional videos displayed on its Michael and Gabriel units
The company has meanwhile been nominated as finalists for the Building Controls Industry Association Awards, in the ‘Innovation of the Year: Products’ category. The awards will be held in September.
