Making safer roads for everyone

Continuous improvement is at the heart of the company and is critical to our future and to the customers that we support.

  • We are proud to play our part in providing a safer environment for new drivers to learn in with confidence. We know this is a crucial factor in allowing more people to have the freedom of their own travel, both in their life and in their chosen occupations. 

  • Our products are safety critical and we do not compromise in ensuring that they can be relied upon when most needed, sometimes in emergency situations.

    We are always keen to use new technologies and methods to improve the quality of our dual controls even further.

Driving into the future

Whilst our long-standing standards continue, we also recognise that the world is changing, as are the needs of our customers.

  • Our dual control range has an increasing profile of dual controls for use in electric and hybrid vehicles to suit modern trends and sustainability in the automotive market. Working on these cars comes with its own increased risks and so He-Man ensure that all our design department and our installers are professionally trained to ensure both personal safety and that of the vehicle.

  • Our investment towards insourcing wherever possible, contributes to a reduction in our carbon footprint, by reducing the number of movements of materials through the supply chain. Further steps have included the digitalisation of our installation documentation and changes to avoid the use of single use plastics.

International standards

  • ISO 9001

    International standard for Quality Management

  • ISO 45001

    International standard for Occupational Health & Safety management

  • ISO 14001

    International standard for Environmental management

  • Our internationally recognised ISO standards are important both to recognise the standards that we work to and to ensure that we remain committed to continuous improvement on our standards. Whilst the accreditations ensure that we maintain the highest standards we always aim for our own standards to be even higher.

  • Most importantly we remain focused on the key goal and heart of our sustainability efforts, which is that our dual controls protect the safety of all road users - and can ultimately save lives.
