30 years working for Paneltex!

Paneltex Celebrates Long-Standing Employees with Special Recognition

 Hull, UK, 12 July 2024 – Over the past month, Paneltex has celebrated the milestone achievements of four dedicated employees who have reached 30 years of service. In recognition of their commitment over such a long time, each of them was awarded a certificate, additional holiday days, and a cash bonus to enjoy a well-deserved long weekend away from work!

These four people join a group of long-standing employees which has now grown to nine, including Gary Wellburn, who joined Paneltex in November 1991, only four months after the company was founded.

“We are honoured to have so many employees who have stood by us through both challenging and prosperous times,” said Chris Berridge, Managing Director and company founder. “Their dedication has been instrumental in our growth and success in the refrigerated and specialised vehicle sectors across the UK, Europe, and the American continent. With over 650 colleagues spread across multiple sites, we take great pride in our employment record and extend our heartfelt thanks and congratulations to all our colleagues.”

Chris personally presented Alex, Chris, Steve, and Andy with their awards, underscoring the company’s appreciation for their long-term contributions.
