  • Robinson Brothers Receives Prestigious Cia Award

Robinson Brothers receives prestigious CIA award

Robinson Brothers was awarded the coveted Company of the Year award at the annual Chemical Industries Association (CIA) awards at the end of June.

Held at Lancashire County Cricket's Old Trafford ground on 26th June, the ceremony takes place each year to celebrate the outstanding contributions made by members of the CIA.

The Company of the Year award is specifically designed to highlight the achievements of the most outstanding organisations, and candidates are required to demonstrate they have achieved strong business growth and made a sustained contribution to the UK economy.

For 2014, the accolade was jointly awarded to Robinson Brothers and Hartlepool's Huntsman Pigments, who both triumphed despite very stiff competition from a number of multi-national organisations.

In response to the global financial crisis of 2008 and subsequent economic downturn, much of the UK chemicals industry was required to reassess its operations. Robinson Brothers dedicated its efforts to developing new products and expanding sales into previously untapped geographical markets.

Over the last three years, the company has reaped the rewards of this new focus, which along with major improvements in the efficiency of existing processes, has helped to boost sales and operating profits significantly in each of the past three years.

As a result of its dedication to research and development, Robinson Brothers has been awarded four Technology Strategy Board accolades since 2012 and secured major EU Framework 7 funding.

On the back of its recent successes, the company has been able to reinvest capital back into the business, resulting in new powder handling and distillation facilities, increased hydrogenation capacity and improvements in its safety systems.

Adrian Hanrahan, who took over as Managing Director in 2008, said: "This award really is for all employees in the company who have worked tirelessly to help us fulfil our strategy."

"It is remarkable result. My congratulations to you and all at Robinson's for this incredible result." - R. Jethmalani, IR Tubes, India

"It is definitely an outstanding achievement and IMCD Malaysia is extremely proud to be associated with Robinson Brothers as your esteemed distributor for Malaysia. I'm sure that this has been a wholly team effort in reaching where you guys are today...Once again, congratulations!!" - K. Lee, IMCD, Malaysia
