The collagen casing producer’s two sites passed one million cumulative hours worked by their employees and contractors with no injuries to cause anyone to miss a day of work.
Devro’s CEO Rutger Helbing presented a certificate to Scottish operations director Gary Shiels surrounded by representatives from both the Moodiesburn and Bellshill facilities.
