LIMB-art, a maker of prosthetic leg covers, won the Innovation Award at the HSBC UK South West and Wales Small Business Growth Awards, which recognize the role small businesses play in the United Kingdom’s economy.
Judges recognized LIMB-art for its creativity and measurable impact, specifically for creating the first injection-molded covers to enable global distribution. The product is available in 14 international markets and the National Health System.
Founded in 2018 by former Paralympic swimmer Mark Williams, CEO, and his wife Rachael Williams, the company manufactures the covers from 100 percent recyclable nylon.
“Receiving the Innovation Award at this year’s HSBC UK Small Business Awards is a proud moment for the whole team in Conwy,” said Williams. “We set out to prove that a small business can think big—creating cool prosthetic covers that give people the confidence to stand out and be proud of what they have. This award is recognition that innovation with purpose can travel far, and we’re thrilled our covers are now reaching people around the world.”
