EXPORT orders worth £100,000 have been won by a furnishing firm.
Panaz Limited of Fence has secured contracts as part of the refurbishment of two cruise liners for P&O and one owned by Royal Olympic Cruises.
Panaz specialises in producing flame retardant fabrics for curtains and upholstery for the contract market.
The three ships are being refurbished using the 'Konomi' fabric which is based on traditional Japanese designs.
The latest orders comes just months after the firm won the Queen's Award for Export Achievement following a DTI award for success in selling overseas.
Exports now account for around 36 per cent of turnover at the firm, worth around £2 million a year.
