Presentation of Queen’s Award for Rotherham firm

Rotherham-based engineering company AESSEAL plc was this week presented with the Queen’s Award for Sustainable Development 2022.

The presentation, which took place on 24th October at the company’s headquarters in the Bradmarsh Business Park, was made to AESSEAL Managing Director Chris Rea by the Lord-Lieutenant of South Yorkshire, Professor Dame Hilary Chapman.

This is the 13th Queen’s Award received by AESSEAL plc and the 15th for the AES Engineering Ltd. Group. With operations in six continents, AESSEAL is the world’s fourth largest supplier of mechanical seals, a position achieved due to its innovative products and exceptional customer service.

The award recognizes AESSEAL’s commercially successful products and services, and its management’s focus on growing the business in a way which benefits society and the environment. AESSEAL and the AES Engineering Group went beyond Net Zero in 2021, with audited figures showing that the net impact on the planet through the reduction in carbon emissions in its global business activities was equivalent to the CO2 absorbed by 18 million trees.

Through its superior systems technology, AESSEAL also enables companies worldwide to save 95 billion litres (25 Billion US Gallons) of water every year, significantly reducing the volume of industrial waste water – one of the main causes of global water pollution.

This year, 232 UK businesses received a Queen’s Award, recognizing the leading companies in categories such as International Trade (141 winners), Innovation (51), Sustainable Development (31), and Promoting Opportunity (9).
