Luton based, Jaltek Systems Ltd picked up a winning prize at the regional heats of a major
national manufacturing awards programme organised by Make UK, the manufacturers’
organisation.
The awards, which recognise excellence among manufacturing companies in seven
categories, as well as five Apprentice categories, were held virtually at an online ceremony
for the Midlands and East of England.
Jaltek, which has designed and manufactured electronic systems across a wide variety of
sectors, including aerospace, energy, medical and security, for over 30 years picked up the
Business Growth and Strategy award.
Judges of the Business Growth and Strategy category said that they were “impressed with
the clarity of the company’s primary growth strategy; offering a service to small disruptive
businesses. The financial outcomes were impressive and they showed positive
collaboration with Universities.”
Steve Pittom, Jaltek’s Managing Director commented on the win saying; “We feel
honoured and thrilled to have won in this highly competitive category. It is a whole team
effort that has led us here and I couldn’t be more proud of everyone. Not only the Jaltek
team but also our customers and suppliers. Jaltek has evolved and grown significantly in
recent years. As part of this we have transferred some of the skills and expertise employed
in serving the needs of our larger customers to support smaller enterprises. The team has
relished the opportunity to work with new disruptive technologies and partner with highpotential start-ups. The culture within our business is collaborative, enabling and always
open to meeting new challenges and I’m excited to see what we do next.’
Charlotte Horobin, Midlands Region Director for Make UK, said: “These awards are a
testament to the dynamic companies and individuals working within engineering and
manufacturing. The sector has been at the heart of delivering during the crisis and as we
re-build our economy there will be a bright future for companies and individuals that make
the most of their talent.”
As a regional winner in their category Jaltek will go forward to attend online national
judging in early December with results being announced in January 2021.
