Engineering Innovator of the Year at the Innovation Awards 2025

We’ve been shortlisted for Engineering Innovator of the Year at the Innovation Awards 2025.

Backed by Make UK, NatWest, Innovate UK, and the West Midlands Combined Authority (among others), these awards shine a light on the businesses and individuals driving real innovation in the UK.

With hundreds of nominations received, it’s an honour to be recognised for the work we’re doing to push the boundaries of what’s possible with ball transfer units and movement solutions.

We’re incredibly grateful for your support.

Our ball transfer units and solutions have helped businesses all over the world improve efficiency, productivity, and safety.

From designing custom ball tables to developing specialist units that solve unique engineering challenges across logistics, manufacturing, aerospace, and more.

Our solutions have:

  • Upgraded the baggage and cargo handling at Heathrow Airport Terminal 5.
  • Kept the Millennium Bridge standing steady.
  • Streamlined the production process of one of the world’s largest manufacturers of steel wheels.
  • Cut downtime dramatically for HGG – Provider of cutting-edge, fully automated 3D profiling machines.
  • Even helped a 57-year-old tortoise who lost the use of her front legs be mobile again!

Day in, day out, the team is constantly looking for ways to improve our products and our own efficiency as a business.

So, a huge thank you to the organisers. And of course, to our team and partners who have made this possible.

Innovation is at the heart of everything we do.
