Strix has been named as a publishing partner for an exclusive book and event to commemorate His Majesty the King’s 75th birthday.
Following its involvement in activities to celebrate the late Queen’s Jubilee in 2022, Strix was invited to once again support a royal celebration.
The book – His Majesty at 75: The Leadership and Vision of King Charles III – will be launched at Claridge’s in central London on 14 November – the King’s birthday. Produced in the year of His Majesty’s coronation, the fully illustrated hardback book has been written by The New York Times bestselling author, Robert Jobson, and features the photography of royal photographer, Arthur Edwards MBE, who has been capturing images of the Royal Family for over 45 years.
Charting the King’s life from birth, through his role as the Prince of Wales, to his accession and coronation as King, the book reflects on the ideas and issues he has championed along the way.
The album features a double page interview with Strix ceo, Mark Bartlett, discussing the history of the business, its growth, innovations and commitment to producing sustainable products.
The company will also have a presence at the Claridge’s event, which will be attended by Mark, as well as Harry Kyriacou, cco and md consumer goods, with a stand displaying its products with demos.
Mark commented: “As a company with a rich history in innovation and a strong record and commitment to sustainable manufacturing and products, we are honoured to have been invited to support the celebrations for His Majesty The King’s 75th birthday and to be part of the event at Claridge’s.”
Strix was formerly known as Castletown Thermostats and was founded in 1951 by Eric Taylor. The company has been recognised in the form of four Queen’s Awards, for enterprise and export, confirming the influence of the business.
