I would like to thank our staff here in Rochdale and our various support teams globally for the hard work and dedication that has made winning the Queen\u2019s Award possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Holroyd Precision\u2019s Queen\u2019s Award for Enterprise was announced along with more than 100 other winners from across the UK on 21st April 2015 on the birthday of Her Majesty The Queen. On 14th July 2015, representatives from Holroyd Precision then attended a special reception at Buckingham Palace that was hosted by The Queen. The reception marked the 50th anniversary of the awards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Investment in technologies, research and people<br \/>\n<\/strong>Holroyd\u2019s recent \u00a33 million development of the Zenith 400 helical profile grinding machine, a truly ground-breaking technology that has already resulted in orders from the USA, China and Germany, is just one example of its commitment to investment.<\/p>\n<p>The company also has a long track record of investing in young people at its Rochdale HQ and for ongoing research into milling and grinding technologies at postgraduate and post-doctoral level. When developing new machine tools, such as the Zenith 400, Holroyd is also acutely aware of the importance of minimising environmental impact as much as fulfilling the needs of its customers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Business accolades<br \/>\n<\/strong>Holroyd Precision Ltd has secured a number of high profile business accolades. In February 2014, the company was the proud recipient of the Greater China Business Award for the North West. Also, in the same month, one of Holroyd\u2019s young engineers was presented with the respected AMTRI scholarship at the Manufacturing Technologies Association (MTA) awards dinner. In June 2014, the business was then identified as one of twenty up and coming medium-sized subsidiaries of foreign companies in the inaugural Sunday Times PA Consulting Inward Investment Track. Finally, in November 2014, Holroyd was named as Apprentice Employer of the Year in the prestigious Rochdale Business Awards.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Holroyd\u2019s achievements, visit:<strong> http:\/\/bit.ly\/HolroydQueensAward2015<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>PTG Holroyd<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Tel: 01706 526 590<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Email: <\/strong><a href=\"mailto:neil.jones@ptgltd.com\"><strong>neil.jones@ptgltd.com<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ptgltd.com\"><strong>www.ptgltd.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"thumbnail thumb-left\"><img width=\"64\" height=\"51\" src=\"http:\/\/rbpublishing.co.uk\/engsubcon\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/PTG-GSF-Website-April-TH-150x120.jpg\" class=\"wp-post-image-excerpt wp-post-image\" alt=\"Featured Image\" title=\"Innovation, News, People\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/div><p>Warren J Smith Esq JP, HM Lord-Lieutenant of Greater Manchester, has presented Holroyd Precision Ltd with a Queen\u2019s Award for Enterprise \u2013 the UK\u2019s highest accolade for business success.
