我们的价值观
We are driven by a team of groundbreaking designers from a mix of artistic and engineering backgrounds, blending these fields to create fine balance of form and function: in short products that look great and also deliver efficient functionality.
We believe that products that help people with different capabilities should blend seamlessly into the build environment and there are many examples of this in the build environment today.
Our focus is sport and leisure, and if your goal is to increase participation in sport and activity then you share our mission.
We focus our efforts on those facing the biggest barriers, and where we can achieve the greatest public good, from inactive children and disabled people to maintaining a mobile aged community in the face of the costs of an ageing society.
Our products form part of a preventative health care strategy: enabling communities to have the greatest health and wellbeing possible, saving governments healthcare costs, care costs for older people and enabling everyone to achieve maximum health which is a prerequisite to playing a productive role in society.
Our 360 degree design led approach analyses the full customer experience, ensuring that we provide real solutions that create transformative change for leisure users.
Our company has a social mission, and we also place strong value on our social responsibilities as a manufacturer and employer, working towards net zero and supporting local woodland development in the areas where we operate. We operate youth employment schemes to bring young people out of work into employment in our home city, Glasgow in Scotland.
In 2025 8% of staff have a disability.
