Photonic Products is honoured with Second Queen’s Award on Her Majesty’s 80th Birthday

Photonic Products Ltd, the UK optoelectronics device manufacturer and laser diode specialist, is delighted to announce that it has been honoured for the second time with a Queen’s Award for Enterprise in the International Trade category. The royal accolade was announced on Her Majesty’s 80th birthday.

Over the last 3 years export sales, (80% of total revenue), have more than doubled, resulting in the creation of 30 new jobs, with more in the pipeline.

We are honoured to receive a second Queen’s Award. It shows that small organisations with a highly dedicated staff can still win prestigious awards and provides a perfect demonstration to our overseas customers of the quality of the service we provide.

In the last 5 years, the company’s manufacturing business has grown by over 600% in response to worldwide customer demand for its laser diode modules and optical components, and it has invested in cutting edge manufacturing technology to give increased capacity and considerable gains in productivity.

The company’s rapid growth prompted its recent move to new premises with a production area of 1242 square metres, giving plenty of room for further expansion.
