THE door industry journal winter 2025 22 Industry News Also online at: www.dijonline.co.uk Supporting Growth with an Extra Delivery Vehicle and Driver SWS recently announced the expansion of its delivery fleet with the addition of a new vehicle and driver - a move designed to support growing customer demand and maintain the company’s reputation for reliable, on-time deliveries. Excitingly, the new vehicle will enhance SWS’s long-term plan to handle larger or heavier loads, providing even greater flexibility across its operations. Joining the team as an additional driver and manning the new vehicle is Jack Campbell, who brings nearly four years of experience in the haulage industry. Having already been part of the DX team for the past 15 months, Jack is no stranger to the fast-paced demands of professional transport and is looking forward to becoming a more familiar face to SWS customers across the country. Importantly, Jack’s arrival does not replace any existing drivers but rather strengthens the team, ensuring that schedules continue to run smoothly as demand for SWS products grows. www.sws.co.uk DHF strengthens quality credentials with ISO 9001:2015 certification The Door & Hardware Federation (DHF) has been awarded ISO 9001:2015 certification, reinforcing its commitment to quality, professionalism, and continual improvement across all areas of its operations.
