Local equipment rental firm Dromad Hire has been awarded ‘ Irish Plant Hire Company of the Year 2022 ’ at the Plant & Civil Construction, Quarry & Recycling Magazine awards.
The prestigious awards took place on the evening of Thursday 1st of December during a glittering ceremony, compered by television and radio sports presenter Adrian Logan, at the stunning Crowne Plaza Hotel Belfast.
Organised by the Hillsborough based publishers of Plant & Civil Engineer, 4SM (NI) Ltd, it was attended by hundreds of guests and leading figures from the plant, construction and quarry industries.
With 17 separate categories, the event is widely regarded as Ireland’s premier platform of recognition for those operating across all sectors of the industry on the island.
Dromad Hire is a fully independent Irish owned company with over 30 years in business, that specialises in Powered Access Hire, General Plant and Tool Rental along with Approved Ex-Rental & New Equipment Sales, offering a nationwide service throughout the island of Ireland.
According to the Award organisers & judges:
“The Award was presented to Dromad Hire due to their extensive portfolio of high quality equipment, flexible hire options, and respected customer service policies. Dromad are a modern & diverse company that provide a high level of plant hire expertise. Their product knowledge, distribution network, prompt delivery & collection, and vast equipment options puts them ahead of the competition ”.
The award was sponsored by Hire Association Europe & Event Hire Association (HAE EHA), and presented by Carl Bartlett – Director of Certification Services to an all-female team from different departments within the diverse company.
According to Dromad Hire’s Financial Controller Regina Wallace:
“Hard work, determination, and a team of individuals working together, is what makes us deserving of this award for the second time. Without our team, we wouldn’t be the award winning company we are.
"It’s always an honour to be recognised on a national level for the hard work done each and every day by all our staff who constantly strive to do better and offer the best service within the industry."
