Celnor has acquired a majority stake in Assurity Consulting, the leading independent workplace health, safety, and environmental compliance consultancy.
Based in Horsham, West Sussex and employing over 85 professionals, Assurity Consulting has been established for over 35 years. The business provides detailed, impartial advice and training to organisations responsible for thousands of buildings across the UK, covering indoor air and water quality and hygiene, Legionella, asbestos, fire safety, accessibility, environmental management, food safety, and health and safety. It also operates a UKAS accredited air and water testing laboratory.
It becomes part of Celnor’s Safety and Compliance division, which already includes three well-established businesses: Watford-based Vintec Laboratories, Riverside Environmental based in Kent and Birmingham, and APEC Environmental with bases in Newcastle, Chester, Sheffield and Surrey.
Simon Parrington, Celnor founder and Group CEO, said, “Assurity Consulting fits very well into the Celnor Group, providing vital and expert workplace health, safety and environmental compliance services to organisations and extending the Group’s capability and geographic coverage. It is a very professional business with a great culture fit for Celnor, which was obvious from the beginning of our working relationship. I am delighted to welcome the team from Assurity Consulting to the group, and I am looking forward to supporting them in their next phase of their growth.”
Paul Foxcroft, Managing Director of Assurity Consulting, is equally pleased with the outcome, “Our partnership with Celnor will bring direct benefits to our customers. From investment in new technology and employee training, to support for innovation in anticipation of customer needs, it will provide a platform for our future success. I am particularly pleased that we will be able to offer greater career development and career progression opportunities to our talented team.”
