BPW Bergische Achsen KG has been voted Best Brand in the trailer axle category by readers of the magazines trans aktuell, lastauto omnibus and Fernfahrer. This means that the company has managed to take top position for the eighth time in succession.
It was the tenth time that the accolades were given out to the favourites among the brands. These awards, for which the readers give their verdicts on the companies and their products, focus specifically on component manufacturers, the supply sector and service providers. Over 8,000 readers took part in this year's survey.
The award ceremony, covering a total of 22 categories, took place on 5 June at the Hanns-Martin-Schleyerhalle in Stuttgart. Dr Bert Brauers, a member of the BPW management, accepted the award: "As drivers of innovation, we are striving every day to make loading and transportation processes safer and more transparent. The goal that drives us is to enable even better utilisation of the trailer potential in the future, thereby making the mobility of tomorrow even safer and more efficient. We are very pleased to see the commitment of all BPW employees reflected in the award from the magazine readers. We shall continue to justify the trust and recognition, which we appreciate greatly."
