The closing date for entries is 29 November and the next Gala Dinner and Presentation Ceremony will take place on 13 March 2025 at the Hilton at St George’s Park in Burton on Trent.
The online entry forms, which seek submissions for activities and achievements that took place in the 18-month period up to the submission deadline, are available for completion and will remain on the awards website – www.pumpindustryawards.com – until 5.00pm on 29 November.
The 2025 awards programme will give recognition to companies and individuals who have gone the extra mile to meet and exceed the demands and challenges presented by the sectors served.
This recognition will be presented by a suite of award categories that honour the breadth of product and service delivery by the pump industry. Another change to previous years is the introduction of a turnover split within the Distributor of the Year category. This will allow for businesses with an annual turnover of less than £3 million to be suitably differentiated from larger businesses.
The main category sponsors are highlighted below:
Product of the Year – Sponsored by Plant & Works Engineering Project of the Year – Sponsored by BPMA Environmental Contribution of the Year – Sponsored by SPP Pumps Manufacturer of the Year – Sponsored by WEG UK Distributor of the Year (<£3M & >£3M) – Sponsorship Calpeda & Caprari Supplier of the Year – Sponsored by Wilo Contribution to Skills & Training – Sponsored by Crest Pumps Rising Star Award – Sponsored by World Pumps Sustainable Contribution for a Better World – sponsored by AESSEALWayne Rose, CEO at the British Pump Manufacturers Association, said: “This year’s awards ceremony – the 23rd such event – was a superb evening of celebration for our sector and provided a fantastic showcase of innovation, technical endeavour, engineering prowess and professional excellence. Pumps and pumping systems provide the bedrock and essential support for every aspect of our lives. A world without pumps is unthinkable and so it is only right that we have a strong platform to acknowledge, celebrate and highlight the achievements of this crucial business arena. I would therefore encourage all those involved in the pump industry to prepare and submit their entries for the 2025 awards programme.”
