SME News Northern Enterprise Awards 2023 / 68 Best Specialist Rubber Engineering Firm 2023 In 1986, Reliant Rubber Engineers Ltd set out on a journey that was destined to permanently alter the face of specialised rubber products and the rubber engineering industry. Founded with a keen focus on restoring and enhancing rubber-coated rollers across industry, what began as a roller repair specialist has today blossomed into a versatile business providing a diverse range of services, including rubber flooring, rubber mats, seals and gaskets, and rubber moulding services, as well as a series of solutions that are highly specialised for the food industry. We speak with Sales and Marketing Manager Lukasz Telega, who tells us more about the business and its diverse offerings. In the more than 37 years since Reliant Rubber Engineers Ltd has been founded, it has continued to serve as an industry pioneer, constantly expanding its offerings and venturing into new territories in order to cater effectively to the ever-evolving needs of its clients. The company’s most recent triumph comes in the form of its innovative product division, which specialises in rubber flooring and matting solutions uniquely tailored to the discerning hospitality and manufacturing industries. Within just a few short months of this being implemented, the business achieved a significant milestone, partnering with the prestigious Britannia Hotel Group as an official supplier in September this year. Reliant Rubber is comprised of a knowledgeable and highly competent team of rubber engineers. Bolstered by years of expertise and first-hand experience in the industry, this staffing team undertake highly specialised projects, ensuring the highest calibre of results every time through a combination of precision and finesse. Distinguishing the company from others is its blend of seasoned engineers and an ability to tackle complex projects with ease. Lukasz explains, “we are not just providing a service; we are delivering a meticulous and tailored approach that only years of hands-on experience can offer.” Since the business serves those in a host of industries, it is impacted significantly by the market trends and shifts related to these areas. One current trend that has affected the business more broadly is the increasing shift towards sustainability, something that the company is proud to deliver upon, recognising the pivotal role it plays in helping to safeguard the planet. To this end, sustainability now serves as the foundation of Reliant Rubber’s mission, and a carefully chosen blend of both natural and recycled rubber is used in products, with this acting as a sustainable alternative and reducing the demand for synthetic rubber. Being based in the North of the UK has many benefits for Lukasz and the team, as not only does it provide exceptional transport links through a web of motorways, but it means that the company is positioned at the very heart of networking opportunities, with the modern and bustling cities of Leeds and Manchester just a short distance away. As Lukasz summarises, “it’s not just a location; it’s a strategic advantage for growth and collaboration.” The company’s surroundings have also fed into the internal culture that has been nurtured, with diversity, inclusion, and equal respect being afforded top priority for all. This is made abundantly clear through every element of the business, from hiring through to training. The company’s goal is to ultimately ensure that everyone under the brand is enabled the opportunity to effectively contribute to the success of the business, as well as thriving on an individual level through personal and professional development. After all, without the hard work of Reliant Rubber’s teams, this continuous success would not have been possible, and the company would not be the industry frontrunner that is today. Being in this position means that the team are constantly updating their offerings, which in the near future is set to include the enhancing of its online presence, the relaunching of its website, and the development of an online store, set to be finished in early 2024. Through this stream of upcoming services, Reliant Rubber Engineers Ltd is continuing on its well-trodden path to success, enabling more companies to discover the benefits of these specialised rubber services and products and the ways that they can demonstrably benefit businesses. With nearly 40 years of experience to boot and a steadfast desire to remain competitive and ahead of the industry curve, the company and its team have proven to be more than deserving of this award and are sure to continue to innovate in the field well into the future.
