Gloucestershire-based Advanced Insulation – a leading manufacturer of specialist passive fire protection and thermal insulation materials for the upstream oil and gas industry; and manufacturer and supplier of fendering and buoyancy products for the global marine and offshore energy markets – has won a number of awards in the recently announced Gloucestershire Business Awards, which have established themselves as one of the most prestigious events in the local calendar since they were first held 18 years ago.
The Business Innovation Award recognises organisations that have introduced a new product, process, invention, idea, or design that has made a significant contribution to the business. The award – sponsored by the University of Gloucestershire and contested by three other local companies – was Advanced Insulation’s first of the evening and represents another success for the company’s innovative ContraFlame® MS400 system, its lightweight cellar-deck insulation and protection material for the offshore oil and gas industry.
The second award, Growth Business of the Year, was sponsored by Gloucestershire College and recognises Advanced Insulation’s outstanding increases in sales, profit, market share and business expansion over the last 3 years.
Commenting for Local World Gloucestershire, managing director Sarah Pullen says: "Yet again we have had a record entry for this year’s Business Awards, the judges have had a very difficult task and the standards have been very high.”

Gloucestershire-based Advanced Insulation – a leading manufacturer of passive fire protection and insulation systems for the upstream oil and gas industry – has been nominated as a finalist in three categories of the Gloucestershire Business Awards 2015. The categories include Export Award, Business Innovation and Growth Business of the Year awards.
The nominations come after an already bumper 2015 for Advanced Insulation, who have been placed for the second time amongst Britain’s fastest growing international sales stars in the Sunday Times track listings. They also won two regional BVCA awards, the Insider South West Company of the Year Award and the prestigious EEF National Smart Product Award for their innovative ContraFlame® MS400 lightweight under-deck protection system for offshore oil platforms.
The successes and rapid growth of Advanced Insulation have resulted in the opening of a recently refurbished 35,500square feet facility in Gloucester to accommodate several new processes; the doubling of manufacturing space at its Plymouth-based facility; and further expansions of its US-based manufacturing facilities in Houston, Texas.
This year has seen a record number of entries, with over 130 companies in the running for the Gloucestershire-based awards, which celebrate the best of a diverse range of businesses throughout the county. Winners of the awards will be announced in October during a gala presentation to be held at Cheltenham racecourse.
