Deceuninck has been awarded its 15th consecutive RoSPA Award, recognising its sustained commitment to occupational health, safety and employee wellbeing.

The company achieved the prestigious Order of Distinction.

70 years

Celebrating their 70th anniversary this year, the RoSPA Awards have become one of the world’s most well-respected and sought-after health and safety awards programmes. The 2026 awards attracted 2,000 entries from almost 60 countries.

"The wellbeing of our people, both physically and mentally, is embedded in everything we do at Deceuninck, day in, day out,” said Darren Woodcock, General Manager, Deceuninck.

Increased efficiency

Woodcock added: “Safe manufacturing practices are a huge priority for us. Not only do they facilitate a healthier, happier workforce but they also help to ensure we have the means and the manpower to run our operations at full capacity, avoiding any potential disruption for our customers down the line.

“Working in accordance with RoSPA’s framework also helps us streamline processes and improve collaboration across our factory. The result is increased efficiency and ultimately, a better service for customers.”

Rightfully proud

Congratulating Deceuninck on its RoSPA Health and Safety Award, Julia Small, RoSPA’s Growth Director, said: “The high standards Deceuninck has achieved are the result of hard work and dedication, of which it should be rightfully proud and which RoSPA is delighted to honour. 2026 is a landmark year for the RoSPA Awards as we reflect on how far workplace safety has come in 70 years.

“It is because of the commitment of health and safety leaders like Deceuninck that people today are safer at work than in the past and that sets an inspiring example for the future.”
