Norfolk business awarded prestigious Royal Warrant

A Norfolk business has been awarded a Royal Warrant by King Charles III in recognition of its years of service to the Royal Household at the Sandringham Estate.

Chemanglia, a cleaning and chemical supplies company based in Fakenham, has been granted use of the prestigious Royal Arms after receiving a Royal Warrant of Appointment by the King as manufacturer of washroom and janitorial products.

“We heard in May that we had been awarded the Royal Warrant when a letter arrived from Buckingham Palace,” said Linda Jones, executive assistant at Chemanglia, who oversaw the application process.

“It was an unforgettable moment. The application required us to demonstrate the quality and sustainability of our products, as well as the breadth of our service.

“All the time and effort has been rewarded in a truly wonderful way. This is the icing on the cake for Chemanglia – a symbol of the standards we uphold and a mark of confidence for all the industries we serve.”

A Royal Warrant is a mark of recognition for companies which have supplied goods or services to the Royal Household over many years.

A strict criteria must be met and there are currently fewer than 1,000 Royal Warrant holders.

Tom Burkill, founder and group managing director, said: “It is an extraordinary privilege to receive this Royal Warrant from His Majesty The King.

“Our team takes immense pride in the work we do, and this honour is a testament to their dedication, consistency and professionalism.

“To be acknowledged at this level is incredibly humbling and it inspires us to keep raising the bar for our industry.”
