HMG Paints Receives JOSCAR Supplier Accreditation

HMG Paints Receives JOSCAR Supplier Accreditation HMG Paints, a leading independent paint manufacturer in the United Kingdom, announced that it has received JOSCAR supplier accreditation. The Joint Supply Chain Accreditation Register (JOSCAR) Mark is evaluated by some of the largest buyers in the defence, aerospace and security community and indicates to potential customers that HMG has successfully demonstrated its commitment to and standing in the sector. JOSCAR is recognized by some of the largest buyers in the defence community, including BAE Systems, Babcock, Boeing, Leidos, Leonardo QinetiQ, Raytheon, Rolls Royce and the Ministry of Defence (MOD). A single pool of pre-qualification and suitability information is used to determine whether a supplier is "fit for business". The accreditation award will enable HMG Paints to further develop its sales in the defence industry and other markets. Alan Sharples, Defence Sales Manager at HMG Paints, said: "We are delighted to have won JOSCAR supplier accreditation. The award is testament to the investment and innovation we have made in the sector and market over the past few years. It also represents a significant opportunity for us, and we are excited to begin working with businesses that use JOSCAR to find suppliers." All of HMG's defence coatings, including the Def Stan 80-225 system, are also Made in Britain approved. As a UK-based manufacturer, HMG is able to provide fast delivery across its entire product range; the company is expected to benefit organizations that use JOSCAR. Alan said: "Through JOSCAR we look forward with great excitement to beginning work on some exciting projects with members through pre-qualification" and added: "As a British SME, we can manufacture and deliver products quickly, and now with JOSCAR accreditation we can do this even faster by removing pre-qualification barriers and shortening supply times."   Source
