Never a company to stand still, Howells have proven that they know how to run a business, and keep their hardworking staff happy for many years it seems. For over 42 years, Howells Patent Glazing have been a well-respected manufacturer of patent glazing, roof lights, canopies and more for both trade and domestic clients. They have carried out works at prestigious venues including Millennium Point in Birmingham, the orangery at Alton Towers, The Royal Albert Docks and The NEC. However, this month they have dedicated their time to praise their long standing staff who have a total of over 60 working years with the firm.

Lisa Crowley, Julie Wassell, Sheila Koszary and Alex Montgomery are all celebrating 10 years with the company, based in Cradley Heath. Dave Bennett, who has also just celebrated his 20 year anniversary with the firm, has seen many changes to Howells in his time with them. When he first started with the firm, there were only 5 people working at the company - A contrast to the 34 employees there are now.

Bennett fondly recalls "the recognition of staff efforts upon the completion of the large profile glazing job we finished at Millennium Point, Birmingham. The Company were so pleased with us all that they supplied an all-expenses paid trip to Belgium for a long weekend. Particular memories include; the Conductor on the train trip to Bruges, The very rough crossing back to Dover, and the additions to the Howells Empire, some 9 months later".

Sheila Koszary, the firms Marketing Assistant, said "I love working for Howells. Getting positive feedback from direct liaisons with our clients is the best feeling. I hope to be with the firm for many more years and be a part of its inevitable growth. One of my fondest memories from my time with Howells is when we went to see ‘The Nutcracker' - It was my first time at the ballet, and there aren't many companies out there who would treat their staff to something so special".

Howells highly-trained and experienced staff are the heart of the business, and are well versed in the glazing industry and exert themselves in each and every aspect of their day-to-day duties. Dedicated to supplying customers with the highest standard of service, the company's employees truly are the driving force behind their success - and Howells aren't afraid of shouting it from the rooftops. Justone look at their social media prove that.

"We are so happy to have such a fantastic and dedicated workforce who together with us want to see Howells improve and prosper.  As a company we are committed to our employees and believe that they come first, as a happy workforce is productive one" said Tracey Jackson, Marketing Manager at Howells Patent Glazing.
