HWM queens-award Utility monitoring specialist HWM has won the Queen's Award for Enterprise 2017.

Now in their 51st year, the Queen's Awards are the UK's most prestigious industry accolade, celebrating and encouraging business excellence in the UK.

The Innovation award is given to companies that have shown outstanding commercial success due to innovation over two years, or continuous commercial success over five years.
