Rotec is new shirt sponsor for Plymstock Oaks RFC

Plymstock Albion Oaks RFC has announced Rotec Hydraulics Ltd as the new shirt sponsor for the next three rugby seasons.

The new kit was revealed last Saturday at the rugby club’s Men’s 1sts team’s first home game of the season, where the team put on a strong performance, beating Redruth RFC 2nds 63-17.

The new commercial partnership agreement between Rotec and Plymstock Oaks RFC is a significant step in the club’s ongoing efforts to secure strong commercial partnerships that support both its on-field and off-field activities.

The sponsorship will provide the club with essential resources to maintain and enhance its facilities, as well as to promote rugby at all levels within the local community.

Paul Prouse, Managing Director of Rotec Hydraulics, said,

“It’s great to see the Rotec logo on Plymstock Oaks RFC teams’ shirts. We are delighted to support a club that is close to our Plymouth Service Centre and provides sporting opportunities and events for those in our local community. We can’t wait for the rest of the season and wish every team at the club the best of luck.”

Rotec Hydraulics has a history of supporting local sports clubs, including last year’s Vitality Blast T20 winners, Somerset County Cricket Club. In addition to sponsoring local sports teams, Rotec has a strong business commitment to charitable causes – donating year-on-year to charities such as The Grand Appeal and St Margaret’s Hospice.

Rotec achieves ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification

Rotec Hydraulics Ltd was recently awarded ISO 9001 and 14001 certifications in recognition of their quality and environmental management systems.

The company management systems that Rotec have in place were audited against a range of criteria by NQA, a leading global independently accredited certification body, providing assessments (audits) of organisations to various management system standards since 1988.

“Achieving the ISO 9001 and 14001 Standards demonstrates our commitment to going above and beyond for quality and detail in all our products and services,” comments Josie Chamberlain, Rotec’s Quality Systems Manager.

ISO 9001 provides a framework and set of principles that ensure a common-sense approach to the management of an organisation to consistently satisfy customers and other stakeholders. In simple terms, it provides the basis for effective processes and effective people to deliver an effective product or service time after time.

ISO 14001 is the international standard for environmental management systems (EMS) and the most widely used EMS in the world, with over 14,000 organisations certified in the UK and over 250,000 certificates issued globally. ISO 14001 is the principal management system standard which specifies the requirements for the formulation and maintenance of an EMS. This helps to control your environmental aspects, reduce impacts and ensure legal compliance.
