In 2016 Blok N Mesh UK Ltd were granted the Queen’s Award for Enterprise and formal recognition of the innovation and success relating to the POLMIL® range of security fencing. With ‘no dig’ policies becoming the preferred option for global events and sensitive sites, the on-ground POLMIL® fence offers the same level of security as equivalent in-ground systems, without need for groundworks or risk to underground services, and maintains the ability and reliably host electronic perimeter intruder detection systems (PIDS). The robust reusable designs incorporate over 30 years of specialist temporary fencing experience, and have resulted in POLMIL® on-ground fence systems providing protection in Government establishments, nuclear facilities, Royal Navy docks, National Grid substations, airports, gas works, mining operations and other security sensitives throughout the UK and around the world.

This is a tremendous achievement for the company and fantastic recognition for everyone who has been involved with the POLMIL® project. The award – the most coveted in British commerce – recognises not only the quality of the innovation itself, but also the contribution POLMIL® has made to the overall growth of the company throughout recent years. This success would not have been possible without the support of our customers and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your valued business.“
