Eminox SCRT was recognised as a revolutionary breakthrough in emissions control that is enabling operators to cost-effectively upgrade older vehicles to each the emissions regime of newly manufactured vehicles.
"I'm delighted to accept this award on behalf of all Eminox's hard-working employees, as well as our valued technology partners and bus operator clients ," says Jog Lall, sales and marketing director, Eminox.
