Winners All as Awards Night Celebrates Very Best in Our Industry

The annual Plant & Civil Engineer magazine’s Plant, Construction & Quarry Awards at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in South Belfast was another resounding success, focusing on an industry that has so much to celebrate across all of its diverse sectors.

There were 17 awards up for grabs in what was once again a real challenge for our independent judging panel because of the high quality of entries.

This event was all about recognising the very best of what our industry offers. Looking at the finalists in the various categories it is clear there is a wealth of talent right across the board, employing state of the art, innovative technologies and displaying great versality and determination on challenging and sometimes complex projects – from infrastructure and highways to new buildings and retail outlets and a whole lot more.

A lot of hard work, personal sacrifice and ingenuity in our industry goes unnoticed and unrecognised, which is why we stage these awards. Although there could only be 17 winners, each and every one of our finalists are to be congratulated on their achievements throughout the past year.

This year our judges had an extremely difficult task in narrowing the entries down to the finalists and choosing the worthy winners, as the quality of submissions this year was exceptionally high.

They dedicated countless hours to evaluate the submissions, and select the most deserving winners. Their expertise and dedication ensure that these awards truly reflect the pinnacle of achievement in plant, civil engineering, construction, quarry and recycling.

We would also like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our generous sponsors, without whom this event would not be possible. Your support fuels the recognition of excellence and sets the stage for inspiring new standards within our industry.
