Reliance Medical has been announced as a finalist for the International Trade Award at the 2025 Staffordshire Chambers Business Awards, proudly sponsored by Indurent.

As the UK’s leading manufacturer of first aid and medical supplies, Reliance Medical has seen rapid international growth, now exporting to over 40 countries and establishing offices in Hungary, New Zealand, and Australia. The company continues to break new ground with innovative products tailored to local markets, including trauma kits, AEDs, and the award-winning Igloo Hypothermia Blanket.

In 2023 alone, Reliance supplied 20,000 AEDs to UK public spaces and 200,000 tourniquets to NATO, underlining its global reputation for lifesaving solutions. The company’s international expansion has been matched by its commitment to sustainability, with solar-powered facilities, an electric fleet, and award-winning recyclable packaging.

Reliance Medical is also investing in digital innovation, with its upcoming Tell Arnie app set to revolutionise first aid compliance and reporting for businesses in the UK and Europe.

As Reliance approaches two decades of saving lives, this recognition highlights its outstanding contribution to international trade and the positive impact of its growth on the Staffordshire economy.
