Covid-19: Latest Covid-19 statements and covid secure documentation

Business Masters Awards success for PP Control & Automation

PP Control & Automation built on its success at the Made in the Midlands Awards by securing another prestigious business title last night.

We were named as the ‘Medium Company of the Year’ at the Business Desk Masters 20 virtual ceremony, impressing judges with our commitment to developing contract manufacturing and controls and automation capabilities for 25 of the world’s biggest machine builders.

They also praised our involvement in the VentilatorChallengeUK consortium, where we pivoted our manufacturing operations to supply critical electrical harnesses for use in the build – all completed within a 12-week window.

“It has been an excellent two weeks for the business, with the Masters’ triumph coming just a week after the Insider Made in the Midlands Award,” explained Tony Hague, CEO of PP Control & Automation.

“With all of the challenges of Covid-19, it is great for our 230-strong workforce to be recognised for their commitment, hard work, innovation and desire to be the best in our field. We have a fantastic team and one we are very proud of.”
