Safety and Sustainability
Safety and sustainability is at the forefront of everything we do at Higgins.
We work proactively to provide a safe environment for both our employees and customers. Safety is an important aspect of all our roles, so everyone who joins Higgins Coatings receives safety training and ongoing support.
We believe it is becoming more and more important to demonstrate that as an organisation, Higgins Coatings is living up to our commitment to Safety, Quality and the Environment in an ever increasing regulatory framework.
