Awards 2010 Winners - Full List

Awards, Winners and finalists in full

The FLTA Awards for Excellence 2010 were presented across 11 categories. Each winner was chosen either by the FLTA Board or by the industry as a whole for making a superb contribution to materials handling in their category. While the greatest honour is reserved for those winners, all finalists can feel secure in the knowledge that anybody reaching their level is justifiably considered to be one of the industry’s finest.
