Sternfenster celebrates FORS Bronze Accreditation

Sternfenster has achieved Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) Bronze Accreditation, which is said to demonstrate its commitment to maintaining high standards across its transport operations.

The accreditation follows a successful audit on the 16 July 2026, and reportedly marks an important milestone in the company’s ongoing investment in safety, compliance, operational efficiency and environmental responsibility.

FORS is a nationally recognised accreditation programme that promotes best practice across the transport industry.

It provides a framework for fleet operators to continually improve performance while helping create safer roads and more efficient operations.

For Sternfenster, achieving FORS Bronze reflects the work that has taken place across the business since beginning the accreditation process earlier this year.

“Achieving FORS Bronze is a fantastic achievement for everyone involved,” said Nathan Court, Chief Sales Officer at Sternfenster.

“The accreditation reflects the commitment, teamwork and professionalism that our colleagues have shown throughout the process. It’s something the whole business can be proud of.”

The accreditation reportedly recognises the company’s approach to managing its fleet and transport operations, covering areas including driver management, vehicle safety, legal compliance, fuel efficiency and environmental performance.

For customers, it provides additional confidence that deliveries are supported by robust processes and high operational standards.

“Our customers rely on us to deliver products safely, efficiently and on time,” Nathan explained.

“FORS Bronze demonstrates the standards we have in place to support that commitment. It also gives us a strong foundation as we continue to improve every aspect of our transport operation.”

The project was supported by teams across the business, with Sternfenster’s Logistics and Loading Teams playing a particularly important role in preparing for the audit and embedding the processes required to achieve accreditation.

“The success of this project came from people working together,” said Nathan.

“Our Logistics and Loading Teams showed exceptional dedication throughout the process, and colleagues across the business all contributed to making this achievement possible. It has been a genuine team effort.”

Continuous improvement remains a key focus for Sternfenster, with the company regularly investing in its manufacturing processes, digital technology and customer service.

Achieving FORS Bronze forms part of that wider strategy, helping ensure every stage of the customer journey is supported by dependable systems and consistently high standards.

“Continuous improvement has always been part of our approach,” Nathan said.

“We are always looking for ways to strengthen our business, improve efficiency and deliver an even better experience for our customers. FORS Bronze is an important milestone within that journey.”

Building on this achievement, Sternfenster has already begun working towards combined FORS Silver and Gold Accreditation as it continues to enhance its transport operations.

“Achieving Bronze is an important step, and we’re excited to keep building on that success,” Nathan concluded.

“Our team is already working towards the next level of accreditation, and we’re committed to maintaining the highest standards as our business continues to grow.”
