The Manufacturer of the Year Awards was a barnstorming night in a packed house of jubilant manufacturers at the funky Grange Tower Bridge Hotel London.
The winners were congratulated by keynote speaker Lord Digby Jones, widely known for his six year stint as director-general of the CBI and his passion for British industry.
