ESTA Awards 2022 winners

It is time to reveal the results of the 2022 ESTA Awards of Excellence lifting and transportation awards contest.

The ESTA winners on stage

The winners have been picked from the shortlisted entries and were presented during a gala dinner evening in the Netherlands on Thursday 17 March.

It was a hotly contested event this year with 36 companies in the ten categories shortlisted from a total of 45 entries. All categories had multiple entries so it was down to the wire as the winners were announced.
