Harsco’s Product Marketing Manager has been presented with its prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award.

Peter Bond has been at Harsco Infastructure for 20 years, his decision to retire prompted the special achievement.

PASMA (Prefabricated Access Suppliers’ and Manufactures’ Association) presented Peter with the prestigious award at there annual meeting in Haydock last month which has only been given out to 3 other people in 30 years.

Peter said:

“It has been very rewarding working on the PASMA Council. The training certification scheme is now one of the largest of its kind, and it is the most powerful voice on mobile tower safety in this country.

“I feel I have learnt an enormous amount over the years, and hopefully have made a useful contribution along the way. I wish them all good luck in the future.”

Founded in 1974, PASMA is the recognised focus and authority for mobile access towers, promoting safety standards and best practice across a range of sectors and representing the interests of manufacturers, suppliers, specifiers and users.

The association’s training scheme is one of the most successful and largest schemes of its kind in the UK, with 50,000 users completing it each year.
