The firm based in Summer Lane, Birmingham, provides exemplary fire-rated aluminium doors, windows and glazing systems for contractors, architects and public sector organisations across the UK.

Operating in a highly regulated and compliance-driven sector, the business has built a reputation for quality manufacturing, certified performance and raising standards in building safety.

Lauren Walker, managing director of AFS, said: “This recognition reflects the hard work and integrity of our entire team. Fire safety is an area where there is no margin for compromise. We are proud to be recognised for our growth, but even prouder to be recognised for the standards we uphold and the trust our clients place in us."

The EB100 rankings assess businesses across multiple criteria including innovation, growth, community engagement and resilience.

Scott English, brand director of Elite Business, added: “Aluminium Fire Systems is an innovator in the UK's SME scene and has earned its well-deserved recognition from the Elite Business 100. This distinguished list spotlights the premier SMEs within the UK.”

It's is the fourth year of the competition, with a dramatically increased number of applicants entering since its inception. Judges noted the impressive sales and growth figures, community spirit and engagement and overall high standard of entries this year.

To celebrate the achievement, AFS will attend an awards ceremony in London on March 11 and the firm is included in the EB100 digital guide and online directory which has a readership of more than half a million people.
