We have delivered a strong set of results, growing our order book and progressing medium-term opportunities for future growth.

Paul McDonald, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
'Our Law Enforcement and Fire businesses drove strong growth in Avon Protection during the year. This momentum, together with the significant opportunities emerging from the expanding Military product and customer base, provide a very positive growth outlook for Avon Protection in 2018 and subsequent years.

milkrite | InterPuls continues to benefit from its expanded technology and service proposition, alongside a more positive dairy market, with strong growth in PCI and Farm Services, which we expect to continue in 2018.

There are significant growth opportunities for both businesses and I am confident in our ability to deliver value to our customers, our people and our shareholders in 2018 and beyond.'
