The highly-prized accolade comes following Hamilton\u2019s significant investment and support in promoting the smart control sector over the past 18 months, with the brand working hard to dispel myths around complicated installation and programming through training, education and youth marketing activities.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Smart Solutions Awards have always been our chance to say thank you to manufacturer\u2019s hard work and to recognise their commitment to developing high calibre, highly skilled electrical professionals of the future,\u201d says Rodney Jack, Editor at Voltimum UK & Ireland Ltd. \u201cIn the \u2018Best Manufacturer 2018\u2019 category, the judges were deeply impressed by Hamilton Litestat\u2019s commitment\u00a0to educating and training\u00a0the marketplace over the past year. I congratulate Hamilton Litestat as a finalist and, of course, as a winner.\u201d<\/p>\n
The master of ceremonies was the BBC\u2019s Steph McGovern, and the award was presented to Steve Dyer, Managing Director of Hamilton\u2019s PR agency, Oil the Wheels by Margaret Fitzsimons, CEO of the EDA.<\/p>\n
Gavin Williams, Marketing Manager at Hamilton Litestat, says: \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to have won the Best Manufacturer 2018 Award. We were up against stiff competition and to have been recognised by industry-leading organisation Voltimum is a real honour. Smart controls and easy-access education are two things that we are very passionate about, so to be recognised for our initiatives that span these areas is an affirmation that we\u2019re providing the best possible support for the industry and installers.\u201d<\/p>\n
The British, family-run electricals and wiring accessories supplier was named Best Manufacturer 2018 as the judges recognised the company as a thought-leading brand that consistently brings innovative products and services to market, while being committed to installer training and support. Its recent activities include producing step-by-step tutorial videos; offering free monthly training courses; providing training aids to West Herts College, and holding a \u2018Smart Lighting Control Challenge\u2019 at ELEX events to illustrate how easy it is to wire one dimmer pack and a control plate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
