With the submission deadline fast approaching, companies and individuals from across the electro-mechanical maintenance and repair sector are being encouraged to enter the 2026 AEMT Awards, one of the industry’s most respected programmes recognising excellence, innovation, and outstanding achievement.
Organised and promoted by Touchwave Media Ltd on behalf of the Association of Electrical & Mechanical Trades (AEMT), the Awards continue to celebrate the organisations and individuals that are driving engineering excellence, technical innovation, sustainability, skills development, and business success throughout the electro-mechanical sector.
With Friday 11th September 2026 confirmed as the closing date for entries, businesses are urged not to miss the opportunity to gain industry-wide recognition. Full details of every award category, eligibility criteria and online entry forms are available at www.aemtawards.com.
The winners will be announced at the prestigious AEMT Awards Presentation Dinner, taking place on Thursday 19th November 2026 at The DoubleTree by Hilton, Coventry, where industry leaders, manufacturers, service providers, and engineering professionals will come together to celebrate the very best the sector has to offer.
Supported once again by the Association of Electrical & Mechanical Trades (AEMT), the Awards have established a growing reputation for recognising organisations that consistently demonstrate excellence in engineering, customer service, product innovation, and workforce development. Independent judging and broad industry support continue to reinforce the Awards’ credibility and prestige across the electro-mechanical maintenance and repair community.
This year’s programme introduces two significant developments. The first is the new Electro-Mechanical Champion of the Year award, created to recognise individuals whose skill, commitment, leadership, and influence have made an exceptional contribution to the industry. In addition, the popular Service Centre of the Year category has been divided into separate Small Service Centre of the Year and Large Service Centre of the Year awards, ensuring organisations of all sizes can be judged against businesses of comparable scale and recognised for their achievements.
