“Winning this Award in the category for COVID response, supporting 3M with an increased demand for mouldings and assemblies throughout 2020, is a fantastic recognition of the commitment, dedication and hard work by our teams in the UK and Slovakia working around the clock. We are also grateful for the support of our suppliers and sub-contractors who enabled us to rise to meet the challenge of this unprecedented demand at a time of global challenge” said Peter Tyler, group managing director of the Hi-Technology Group.

Peter added: "As long-term supply partners to 3M our awareness of their standards and processes enabled us to ramp up in a very short space of time to meet 3M’s needs in terms of quality and delivery and to enable them to meet the needs of their customers.”
