WESTHOUGHTON-based Spectra Security Ltd has another quality-standard certificate to hang on the wall.

The company, which specialises in access control and CCTV systems, has added the new ISO 9001-2000 standard -- the highest available -- to the ISO 9002 already held.

Operations Director Barry Sloan said: "We are absolutely delighted with the award of this quality standard.

"It is a tribute to the hard work and dedication of all our team, who always give the highest possible customer service."

Spectra was also awarded "Best Performance of 2002" by the international access control and CCTV manufacturer Bewator of Sweden at a gala dinner in the Belgian city of Bruges.

Councils in Bolton, Salford and Wigan are among Spectra's customers.
