Scolmore celebrates double award win


awards at the prestigious Electrical Industry Awards ceremony. The company’s new Mode Locating Plug Socket


W


triumphed in the Innovative Commercial Product of the Year, as well the Innovative Residential/Domestic Product of the Year categories. The Mode Locating Plug Socket assists people with impaired vision or


poor hand to eye coordination to more easily insert a plug into a socket. The contoured shape of the front plate guides the earth pin into position, and it is this innovative plug guide which gives the product a greater focus on usability and means its use can be extended to situations where a socket isn’t easily accessible. The locating plug sockets are available in one and two-gang options,


with the two-gang version featuring outboard rockers to further assist with distinguishing between switches, making it less likely to switch the wrong one. Marie Parry, Scolmore Group Marketing Manager said: “We are absolutely


thrilled to have received this recognition from the industry. It is a great accolade for all the team members responsible for making this possible. “Although primarily designed for the assisted living sector, we can see that in the future all sockets may adopt this unique but very simple design.”


Managing Director. Tessa, who has an extensive track


T


record in leading business growth, joins the charity from Parsons Brinckerhoff (a Balfour Beatty company) where was National General Manager for Oil & Gas. Tessa said: “Since the Electrical Trades


Benevolent Institution was founded in 1905 the charity has continued to evolve and now provides financial relief and practical support to more people in the electrical related industries than ever before. “Two thirds of our current beneficiaries are of working age but the


majority are ‘economically inactive’ due to redundancy, illness, injury or caring responsibilities. Our aim as a charity is to reach more working people and provide the support which is essential to them. “This is therefore a very exciting time to be joining the Electrical


Industries Charity and I look forward to working with the industry to ensure that we continue to provide help and support to our people when they need it most.” Under Tessa’s leadership the Charity will focus on four key


programmes, the Apprenticeship Support Programme; Employee and Family Support Programme; Pensioner Support Programme and a Practical Participation Programme.

Ellis looks forward with double investment


roof and expanding its tool room and secondly, appointing a new apprentice toolmaker. Located in Rillington, North Yorkshire, Ellis’ cable cleats are specified


C


and installed around the globe and this latest investment is aimed at ensuring it has the capacity and skills to maintain an astonishing growth pattern that has seen it post record figures in 15 out of the last 19 years. The expansion of the tool


room and recruitment of 17-year old Louis Hopper as the company’s latest apprentice provide the potential to increase production capacity in this vital area of the business by 25 per cent. Meanwhile, the roof replacement significantly reduces the company’s


carbon footprint as a result of the adoption of a forced air fan system, better insulation, and vastly improved natural lighting and ventilation. Richard Shaw, Managing Director, said: “One of the key ingredients in


our on-going success is always ensuring we’re prepared for the next step in the company’s development.” Louis Hopper, who first came to Ellis on work experience, is the latest


in a long line of apprentices taken on by Ellis. In fact, at present three of its four strong tool room team began life at Ellis as apprentices. Another Ellis apprentice, Adam Freer, was named Derwent Training


Association’s Apprentice of the Year (Final year NVQ in the workplace) earlier this year.

stringent requirements of the Lighting Industry association (LIA) inspection team. LED Group were required to undergo a thorough inspection of the

laboratory in order to verify the adequacy of the photometric equipment, documentation and the technical competence of the staff to carry out photometric measurements using integrating spheres. The Sphere Photometry Scheme verifies the capability of a


manufacturer’s laboratory to test all the normal types of lighting products using an integrating sphere. The importance of this scheme is that it provides an assurance of the


validity of the photometric data published by LED Group in relation to the performance of ROBUS lighting products and the lighting designs. LED Group are now permitted to describe their laboratory as a ‘LIA


Laboratories Registered Photometric Laboratory’ endorsed by the reputation of the LIA Laboratories (Accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025). This gives customers the full assurance of the validity of product data for the ROBUS brand.
