Starting out in 1991, Armagard is an SME with a big reputation. Recognised as a market leader in the design and manufacture of a diverse range of environmental enclosures, you will find our products in no fewer than 54 countries worldwide.

Armagard is trusted to protect hardware worth over £4 billion, with some of the world's biggest brands including Heinz, Nestle, Rolls Royce and Tesco, putting their faith in us to supply a complete, high-quality solution.

Sales from foreign trade have surged since 2007, when figures represented just 6% of annual turnover; by 2012 this figure had risen to 63%. Now in 2015 this figure has risen to 70%.
