Partnership of the year win

This winning partnership gives manufacturers access to the widest choice of hygienic automation, product handling and packaging solutions in the market today. Plus, the trio have designed systems to address key obstacles including hygiene, dexterity, safety and flexibility, which were up until recently stalling robot adoption in food manufacturing.

Collecting the award in front of more than 400 industry leaders and innovators, John Rainer, regional sales manager of FANUC UK said: "As a partnership, we have a combined knowledge exceeding 100 years. This alone fosters greater innovation, resulting in quicker premium robot builds and a faster return on investment for our customers.”
