positive mental wellbeing

Mental health and wellbeing are incredibly important to us

We take an active role in caring for our people and truly understand the benefits of regular breaks and fresh air. That’s why we worked together to create a peaceful area away from the factory. This serene space was constructed with recycled materials and provides the team with a quiet place to destress. Our employees’ everyday health is very important to us, which is why our team members also benefit from a Simplyhealth plan, providing more access to better healthcare and a host of other benefits.
