Greene Tweed is a global manufacturer of thermoplastics, composites, seals and engineered components. For 160 years, the company has served clients in a range of industries, including semiconductor, oil and gas, aerospace, defence and chemical and pharmaceutical processing.
The East Midlands Chamber plays a role in connecting, supporting, and championing businesses and communities across Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire in the United Kingdom. The Nottinghamshire Business Awards recently celebrated outstanding achievements in the local business community, where winners across 13 categories were announced.
The ‘Excellence in International Trade’ award recognises local businesses that excel in overseas trade. Greene Tweed was selected for its growth strategy focused on international expansion, along with steady sales growth in recent years.
“We truly appreciate this recognition by the East Midlands Chamber,” said Tony Baldassarra, Greene Tweed Nottingham, UK site operations leader. “The ‘Excellence in International Trade’ award is a testament to our unwavering commitment to global trade compliance, and it reflects the team’s dedication to collaboration with international partners to uphold high standards. Together, we can continue to drive excellence in our industry.”
Recently, Greene Tweed’s Nottingham facility received the ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System certification from BSI, a milestone in the company’s global Sustainability Vision. As the first Greene Tweed location to obtain certification to this internationally recognised standard developed by the ISO (International Organisation for Standardisation), Nottingham has set the stage for the company’s long-term goal to achieve ISO 14001 certification at plants worldwide.
Greene Tweed is also investing in its global manufacturing network to meet future industry needs, including a newly opened facility in Korea that increases capacity to deliver Chemraz products at scale. As the company expands its global footprint, the Nottingham facility – which employs more than 150 members – will continue to play a key role in supporting sales, engineering, manufacturing, and quality across the UK, Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
