With sponsorship provided by a host of leading industry names, and extensive promotional support afforded by the two publications dedicated to this sector - Plant & Works Engineering and Drives & Controls – well deserved industry-wide recognition will at last be given to those businesses, large and small, who are excelling in their endeavours.
