Sound Reduction Systems has been awarded the Alcumus SafeContractor accreditation in recognition of its Sonata installation team’s health and safety excellence.

They are highly experienced in ensuring its installation teams adopt the safest working practices in all its new build and refurbishment projects.

The team works extensively with the education sector, in particular, given how its Sonata sound absorption panels range provides the ideal solution for improving acoustics in school halls and classrooms, which often have high ceilings.

By receiving SafeContractor status, SRS now offers independently assessed assurance under a leading third party accreditation scheme which recognises the highest standards in health and safety management amongst UK contractors.

All its Sonata installers regularly undertake training to ensure they are fully up to speed and minimise risks when working in what is still one of the most dangerous sectors.

This includes maintaining an Asbestos Awareness Certificate and PASMA Certificate and Card to stay safe when working on access towers at height.

Alex Docherty, Director at Sound Reduction Systems said: “As a specialist sub-contractor working on a diverse range of sound improvement projects across the UK, we know how important it is for our clients to have complete confidence that their supply chain partners are 100% committed to the health and safety of people, customers and our environment."

That’s why SafeContractor accreditation is so important, allowing us to show that we adopt good risk management and have the processes and resources in place to achieve uniform standards across everything Sonata installation.”

SafeContractor is a highly respected scheme utilised by organisations ranging from SMEs to FTSE100 organisations, including Unilever, Debenhams, Virgin Trains and Vodafone.
