About the business:
Denroy was formed in June 1972 when Martin Rainey Ltd acquired Ulster Plastics Ltd. The name Denroy came from the first and last syllables of two Ulster Plastics brands, Denman (hairbrushes) and Kenroy (kitchen products). The transfer of the Airbus moulding shop from Filton in 1992 would go on to transform the expanding Group to become one of the leading aerospace moulders in the world as illustrated by the work on the A220 and the Eurofighter. Denroy currently hold SC21 Gold and EFQM 6* Level of Recognition. When Covid struck in 2020, we feared that we would not be able to celebrate the 50th Anniversary but the company structure expertise, capabilities and experience enabled us to flex into Personal Protective equipment illustrated here by the FFP3 mask.
