Distrupol UK retains Polymer Distributor of the Year award

For the third time in the nine-year history of the UK's Plastics Industry Awards and the second consecutive year, Distrupol has been voted Polymer Distributor of the Year.

The award, based solely on the votes of the UK's polymer processors with voting for the first time entirely online, is a result of the emphasis placed by Distrupol on customer service and technical support. Distrupol is now the only distributor to have won the award three times.

Accepting the award at the ceremony in October staged at London's Park Lane Hilton Hotel, Sales Manager Distrupol UK Richard Orme said:

"It's a fantastic achievement to have been recognised by our customers once again and is a testament to the hard work of each and every member of the Distrupol team during the last year."

Gerry Moore, Managing Director Distrupol UK added:

"This award shows that our emphasis on customer service and technical support is highly valued by our customers and is the reason for Distrupol being a preferred partner.

Distrupol aims to be more than simply a polymer distributor in the traditional sense, rather a complete solution provider to all our customers and suppliers."
