leaders, especially in the
current challenging corporate
environment, is a critical factor. The Business Excellence
Awards seek to prove that in
times of economic turmoil,
good leadership can deliver
the difference between surviving and thriving.
2015 award winners will
be determined through a
rigorous three-part method-
ology which assesses votes
received online, supporting
documentation evidence
of merit, sheer determination and hard work from
nominated companies and
in-house research to identify
final winners.
“We are delighted to have
received this Business
Excellence Awards nomination,” comments Synseal’s
Chief Executive David Leng,

that the ongoing corporate
development of our Synseal Group through organic

our reliable and quick service.”
The company has enjoyed
rapid expansion and growth

the border. The introduction of

launched in the near-future.
