Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) accreditation has helped Bolton-based acoustic flooring supplier John C Wilkins secure a £250,000 contract with Prestoplan.

The deal will see Wilkins supply acoustic flooring to Prestoplan projects around the UK and, according to the firm, was awarded it because of its FSC certificate.

“Ours wasn’t the lowest bid, but we won the contract because of FSC accreditation,” said sales director Mark Wilkins.

“The award will strengthen our existing customer relationships and help to find new markets.”
