About Shannon R&D Limited

Shannon was established more than 50 years ago as a merchanting company dealing with West Africa. Having seen a gradual erosion of this market particularly in the eighties, the firm took a new direction under the current management leading to a management buy-out in 1988.

Shannon is now well established as the UK agent for leading European companies, marketing, selling and developing technical products for ventilation, heat protection, heat insulation, noise reduction and vacuum lifting applications. In some of these areas Shannon is rightly known as the market leader.

Quality, reliability and honesty

Shannon’s continued success is built on quality, reliability and honesty in all circumstances. Our track record with existing customers is proven and we are often being asked to provide solutions to problems not currently within our sphere of experience. During this process we have learnt a great deal and, where possible, relayed the benefits of our experience on to our entire customer base.

Experience

Our team of experienced staff all have areas of specialist responsibility, are able to advise on a wide range of different solutions and can provide both off-the-shelf and bespoke solutions dependant on the customer requirements. This experience is built over many years and our low staff turnover continues to build upon these firm foundations.


One of the main objectives of the company is to increase its customer base by applying these same principles. We look to all our customers and suppliers as partners in development, as well as business, both parties providing an arena for continuous improvement. The achievement of ISO 9001:2000 in 2005, and subsequently the ISO 9001:2015 standard has helped us to achieve this.
