Engineering Innovator of the Year

We are proud to announce that we were named “Engineering Innovator of the Year” at The Innovation Awards 2025

A few months ago, we were delighted to be shortlisted for the Engineer Innovator of the Year. We can’t begin to explain what an honour it is to be recognised as the winners by all the voters and judges.

What our team had to say:

Claire, our MD, said:

“Innovation, even in small ways, is at the heart of everything we do. It is an essential part of our daily lives at Alwayse. We are a premium brand renowned across the world for quality and innovation, driven by our passion to help our customers solve their movement challenges. These elements combined drive our growth.”

Richard, our Engineering Manager, said:

“Innovation is part of our DNA. Our R&D and engineering team has decades of experience working closely with customers to solve complex challenges that standard products simply can’t fix. A huge part of what we do is designing solutions that deliver real value and keep our customers ahead in their industries. This award is a recognition of that commitment, and I’m incredibly proud of the team behind it.”

James, our Head of Global Partnerships, said:

“When you’re working in a field with so much cutting-edge technology, it’s easy to think your own solutions might be overlooked. But what we do at Alwayse proves that well engineered, practical innovations can make a real difference, not just for our customers, but for entire industries and communities. To be recognised in such a competitive category is hugely rewarding. It’s a testament to the dedication of our team, the support of our partners, and the trust our customers place in us every day.”

Richard Fallon, Co-Founder of The Innovation Awards, said:

“Congratulations to Alwayse. We had more entries than ever before this year, and the competition for each category was stronger than it’s ever been. Each winner can be justifiably proud and can look forward to ongoing support from the 5,000-member TSC network as they chart their course to future success.”

We have been innovating since 1941. Over the past 85 years, we have continuously improved our business, products, and solutions. Today, we export to over 70 countries across industries such as air cargo, manufacturing, machine building, and automated warehousing. Businesses from all over the world come to us with complex challenges and we innovate to solve these problems.

We do not just sell our standard solutions; a significant part of our business is bespoke and unique to our customers’ needs. To be recognised for all this hard work makes us very proud. We want to give a big thank you to every single person who took the time to vote for us. We also want to thank the event organisers for such a fantastic event and for this opportunity.

Lastly, none of this would be possible without our team and partners. Without their hard work, passion, and dedication, we would not be where we are today. We’ve got big plans for the business, and we will continuously improve for all of our customers and the manufacturing industry as a whole.
