Silentnight earns sustainability award

The Furniture Makers’ Company, the furnishing industry’s charity, presented the award during the its Royal Charter Dinner at the Honourable Artillery Company, London.

Part of the Manufacturing Guild Mark, the award considers all aspects of how a business operates – waste and energy management, design process, product improvements, packaging, transportation, procurement, end of life management, client relationships, supplier management, employee engagement and corporate social responsibility.

Nick Booth, marketing director at Silentnight Brands, said: “As a leader in the industry, Silentnight has put a great deal of work into our various sustainability projects over the last few years. To win the award and receive recognition for these investments is just fantastic.” Previous winners of the award include Godfrey Syrett, Hypnos Beds, Premiere Kitchens and Senator International.
