Steve Schofield, director of the BPMA said: “Thank you to everyone who put forward an entry into this year’s awards programme. Our judging process is extremely rigorous, so many congratulations to all those who reached the final stage, and of course to the individual category winners. We feel this year’s complement of finalists truly encompasses the scope of success and innovation in the pump industry today.”

This year’s Pump Industry Awards Gala Dinner was held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Heythrop Park on 10 March and hosted by BBC presenter Mary Rhodes. To round off the proceedings, a charity raffle was held in support of the BPMA’s adopted charity, WaterAid. With prizes donated by companies throughout the industry, the event managed to raise £1,800, which after being doubled by the UK government will provide fresh drinking water for people in need around the world.
