Gratnells awarded the Manufacturing Guild Mark

GRATNELLS is the latest company to be awarded the prestigious Manufacturing Guild Mark from The Furniture Makers’ Company after successfully passing the rigorous independent audit.

Headquartered in Harlow, Gratnells is a privately owned, British manufacturer of storage systems for the education sector. Its award-winning trays can be found in over 20,000 schools throughout the UK and 68 countries worldwide,

Sponsored by Lectra, the Manufacturing Guild Mark has been the mark of excellence, distinguishing Britain’s top furnishing manufacturers, since 1993. The Mark is awarded to companies that demonstrate high standards across all aspects of the business.

Manufacturing Guild Mark Chairman Ben Burbidge presented Murray Hudson, Managing Director at Gratnells, with the Manufacturing Guild Mark last month, saying “I would like to congratulate Gratnells for being awarded the Manufacturing Guild Mark. We’re delighted to welcome an educational furniture manufacturer to the increasing list of holders, which goes to show that the Mark is relevant across all sectors within the wider furnishing industry.”

Murray Hudson responded, saying: “We are absolutely delighted to receive this award as recognition of all our hard work in advancing our manufacturing processes and environment. Achieving a Manufacturing Guild Mark accreditation has provided us with the ideal springboard to further advance our engineering capabilities.”
