Latest award shows innovation is ‘core ethos’
UAP Ltd takes home GAI Community Award for ‘major growth drive’ in company innovation
This year’s Guild of Architectural Ironmongery Member’s Day proved successful for UAP as the team took home the coveted Company Innovation trophy at the event’s Community Awards.
The accolade is reserved for companies that can demonstrate innovation through improvement in processes, which will in turn improve the company, its customers or the wider society. Speaking of UAP’s validation of this, the award judges said the hardware manufacturer was a “great entry that demonstrates innovation being a core ethos for the company; certainly on a major growth drive and putting it in the infrastructure, products and real estate to deliver it.”
UAP National Sales Director, Barry Halpin who collected the award said: ”It’s great to be recognised for our innovations as a business. I’m so proud of everyone at UAP, and another amazing achievement and recognition for the hard work the whole team put in.”
News of the award came shortly after UAP – and sister company FDM – were shortlisted for eight NFAs later this year, marking a grand start to 2024’s awards season.
