Silver standards

Reflex Marine has been awarded the coveted Silver standard by Investors in People. It joins a select group of only two per cent of businesses in the UK to have gained the silver award.

The company, which developed the FROG and TORO marine transfer devices, is also highly active in the wind energy business. It builds on its high standards through development and innovation and carries that right through to its biggest asset – the people that have helped to build the business.

CEO Philip Strong said: “It’s a great honour for Reflex Marine to receive such a prestigious award, particularly on our first application. However we can’t afford to be complacent. For us, this is a journey not a destination and we will keep working to ensure we grow a really great company based on solid values that we can all be proud of.”

To achieve the silver award, Reflex Marine had to not only satisfy Investors in People of its ability to meet the 37 standard requirements, but it also had to satisfy them in an additional 76 evidence-based requirements.

Mark Story from Investors in People commented: “Out of all organisations to have IIP only two per cent have silver. I was particularly impressed with the culture of the organisation and the pride its employees have in working for Reflex.”
