Crystal Doors is one of just 2 companies in the North West to be honoured with a prestigious Queen’s Award for Enterprise for Sustainable Development in 2021.

We have been awarded the prestigious title in recognition of our pioneering approach to achieving net zero manufacturing.

The Queen’s Awards are the pinnacle of business awards in the UK. We are now able to use the esteemed Queen’s Awards emblem for the next five years.

Only 34 organisations in the North of England have received the Sustainable Development award since it was first introduced in 2000. Crystal Doors is the first ever Rochdale business to win the award.

Crystal Doors’ Managing Director, Richard Hagan, says:

The science says we only have a few years of inaction left before achieving our global agreements on greenhouse gas emissions become impossible. It is our collective responsibility, as businesses and as a society, to take action. Our story is proof that even small organisations with tight purse strings like ours can turn things around rapidly.

We’re proud of our industrial heritage here in Rochdale and the wider North. It’s even more important we kickstart the transition to a green economy in traditionally deprived communities like ours, where we can create high quality green jobs for local people.

Rochdale MP Tony Lloyd says:

Congratulations to Richard and Crystal Doors for their well-deserved Queen’s Award win and for showing us all what’s possible.
