The Fork Lift Truck Association's annual awards for excellence 2006 will be at the Birmingham Hilton Metropole on Saturday, February 11.

Award nominations close on September 30, 2005.

"If you want to have a chance of winning one of these awards, make sure your product or service is nominated," says FLTA chairman Richard Baxter. "And don't wait for someone else to send in a nomination, do it yourself."

The nomination process involves an easy-to-complete form that can be obtained from the FLTA website or by contacting FLTA directly.

FLTA is encouraging people and companies to participate by voting, attending the event or joining the list of sponsors and supporters.

In 2006 Linde Material Handling (UK) Ltd will sponsor entertainment for the awards for the first time, while Integrity Handling Ltd is joining the list of supporters.
