Judges cited the “outstanding build quality and attention to detail”, adding that “consistent innovation and production in high quality facilities were also influential”.
The refrigerated van manufacturer won the award for the first time at the inaugural awards in 2013 and again last year – but, says the company, didn’t think it possible to win a third time.
Three Paneltex customers – Iceland, Enterprise Flex-E-Rent and Chiltern Cold Storage – also picked up awards in other categories
Dave Evenett, Paneltex’s group sales director, says: “After winning the award for the second occasion last year, we didn’t think that it would be possible to achieve the hat-trick. But we did win and this is a phenomenal achievement that clearly recognises the hard work and devotion of everyone at Paneltex Somers.”
