Zonegreen, part of the Sentric Safety Group, has relocated to a new, purpose-built 500 square metre facility within Davy Industrial Park in the Darnall area of Sheffield, which has been its home since 2009.
Rapid development has driven the office move, as a larger space was needed to accommodate Zonegreen’s growing team. In the 15 years it has been based at Davy Industrial Park, staff numbers have increased from eight to 18 and some 2,700 orders have been received for its depot safety systems, more than 1,000 of those placed in the last four years alone.
The new premises will allow Zonegreen’s design and engineering experts space to demonstrate their technical expertise to customers, whilst also providing efficient workspaces for its support teams.
Christian Fletcher, Zonegreen’s head of engineering, said: “We are really pleased to be finally settling into our new office space. It will enable us to continue growing and developing products we know can save lives in the rail industry.
“A great deal of time and effort has been necessary to make this move a reality and we hope customers and professional partners will come to see our fantastic building for themselves in the new year.”
In March 2023, Zonegreen joined Sentric and became one of the group’s world-leading brands dedicated to protecting people in hazardous working environments. This transition has significantly boosted its prospects and is enhancing its reputation in the UK and internationally.
Gemma Houghton, head of rail, added: “Zonegreen is an excellent ambassador for our group, demonstrating how technology can be used to automate safety procedures, reducing the risks faced by rail maintenance staff by removing the margin for human error. We are very proud of our progress and this office move reflects the hard work and innovation our staff have shown for nearly two decades.”
