The Association for Specialist Fire Protection (ASFP) awards evening is later this month and we’re already celebrating with two nominations. Robert Grant has been nominated for Individual Rising Star of the Year and Nathan Small for Best Customer Service of the Year. The awards ceremony, billed as an evening dedicated to honouring exceptional accomplishments and celebrating the forefront of the passive fire protection industry, will take place at the Athena Events Venue on the 28th of November.


Let’s meet UKTC’s nominees.


Robert Grant of UKTC


Robert Grant

Rising Star of The Year Nominee




Robert joined UKTC as a Trainee Technical Surveyor in October 2021 after graduating with a BSc in Building Surveying from Glasgow Caledonian University. Now a Technical Officer, Robert oversees many of our fire resistance tests as well as reaction to fire testing, technical specification and drawings. His rise to Technical Officer over the last few years is testament to his hard work and dedication to continually develop his skill set and contribute to the development of his colleagues.


Nathan Small of UKTC


Nathan Small

Customer Service of The Year




Nathan’s customer-first approach has been at the forefront of UKTC’s growth over the last three years since joining the team in November 2021. Bringing nearly a decade of timber doorset manufacturing experience, Nathan can directly relate to a client’s needs and translate that into a highly efficient testing experience for our customers across the UK.


Commenting on both nominees, Dan Fitzsimmons, Head of Testing at UKTC, said: “Both Robert and Nathan are deserving of their nominations. Their positive, proactive approaches to the daily challenges faced in our industry exemplify the standards we set at UKTC. We’re delighted that they are nominated and look forward to a fantastic evening.”
