2024 Pump Industry Awards nominations deadline looms
12 Nov 2024
The British Pump Manufacturers Association is urging members not to miss the nominations process for its industry awards that now boasts two new categories aimed at SMEs and sustainability.
To mark its quarter century the Pump Industry Awards’ trophy for Distributor of the Year will be split with separate entries for businesses with annual turnovers above and below £3 million.
Said a spokesman: “This will allow for smaller businesses, those with an annual turnover of less than £3 million, to be suitably differentiated from larger businesses.”
In addition, there will be a new environmentally focussed award: Sustainable Contribution for a Better World.
However, with the closing date for entries of 5pm on Friday 29 November 2024 nearing, businesses are being urged not to risk missing the deadline.
The Gala Dinner and Presentation Ceremony will be held on Thursday 13 March 2025 at the Hilton at Burton on Trent St George’s Park – best known as the training ground for England’s national football teams.
Online entry forms are provided for submissions citing activities and achievements that took place in the 18-month period up to the deadline, via the dedicated awards website – www.pumpindustryawards.com .
