_______________________________________________________________________________________________ Meldrum
Group leading contractor across the UK while continuing to strengthen our reputation for quality and integrity in the North East .”
Most recently , Meldrum Group launched its Fire Engineering division . Armed with a dedicated Health & Safety and QEMS team , the company designs and installs high-quality , complex fire safety and evacuation systems and services , including inspections and maintenance works .
“ Following the Grenfell disaster , we found a number of previous fire installations to be lacking in quality . We felt derisking our builds by doing the fire protection in house made logical sense to us . It means we can offer our clients a level of assurance and comfort that the fire protection has been completed to a high standard ,” Dave explains .
Additionally , Meldrum Group has been awarded the contract to build SeAH Wind ’ s new office accommodation block in Teesside . Employed by K2 Construction Management , Meldrum Group is working to preserve and regenerate the heritage site , working closely with local clients , contractors , apprentices and suppliers .
“ We ’ re thrilled to be part of the Tees Valley economic landscape ,” Dave reports . “ TVCA has delivered a crucial role in redefining the region ’ s aspirations and future growth plans .”
Securing the future
In November 2024 , Meldrum Group proudly announced some exciting news : it has now transitioned to a certified employee-owned trust ( EOT ). This inspiring development was driven by an increasing desire for employee ownership across the industry , and is representative of Meldrum Group ’ s strong company values , independence as a business and commitment to its loyal team . With the change now finalised , the entirety of Meldrum Group ’ s workforce can take a more significant stake in the company ’ s profits and success , thereby reinforcing how the business rewards and motivates
its hardworking employees and fosters a healthy , collaborative working environment .
“ By becoming an employee-owned trust , we ’ re securing the future of the company , our culture , and importantly , the future of an
amazing group of people ,” Dave highlights . “ Given the results over the past three financial years , the growth forecast for this current year and the relationships forged with many clients looking to place repeat business with us , we believe we are well-placed and equipped to look to the future with great confidence .”
As the years keep rolling by , Meldrum Group is continuing on its journey to strong , sustainable , organic growth with quality and innovation at the fore . Equipped with an unbreakable passion and ethos , as well as robust succession plans , Dave is very excited for the future of the business and what it may hold . ■
