Europlaz is proud to announce that we have been named a finalist in the Lloyds British Business Excellence Awards 2026, having been shortlisted for The Vistage Growth Business of the Year Award. The company is one of just 11 businesses selected as finalists in the category, recognising organisations that have demonstrated exceptional business growth and performance.
Recognising sustainable growth and business excellence
The Lloyds British Business Excellence Awards are widely regarded as one of the UK’s most prestigious business awards programmes. Headlined by Lloyds Bank, with ITV as media partner and support from the UK Government, the awards celebrate the organisations that are driving growth, innovation and excellence across the British economy. Almost 200 businesses have been named finalists across 20 categories in 2026.
Being shortlisted for The Vistage Growth Business of the Year Award is recognition of Europlaz’s continued growth, strategic investment and commitment to delivering value for customers in the medical device sector.
A team achievement
This achievement reflects the dedication and expertise of colleagues across every area of the business. From manufacturing and quality assurance to engineering, customer support and operational excellence, the success of Europlaz is built on the collective efforts of our people.
Over recent years, Europlaz has continued to invest in its facilities, capabilities and workforce, strengthening its position as a trusted medical device contract manufacturing partner. These investments enable us to support customers at every stage of their manufacturing journey, helping them bring innovative healthcare products to market efficiently and reliably.
Rory O’Keeffe, Commercial Director at Europlaz, said: “This recognition is a testament to the ambition, expertise and commitment of our people. Being shortlisted for The Vistage Growth Business of the Year Award acknowledges not only the growth Europlaz has achieved, but the way we have achieved it through investment, innovation and a relentless focus on supporting our customers’ success. We are honoured to be named among the finalists and look forward to representing the medical device manufacturing sector at the awards.”
Supporting the future of medical device manufacturing
As healthcare technologies continue to evolve, the need for experienced manufacturing partners has never been greater. Europlaz remains committed to supporting customers with the quality systems, technical expertise and manufacturing excellence required to meet demanding regulatory and commercial requirements.
Being recognised in a category focused on business growth is particularly meaningful because it reflects not only commercial success but also our commitment to sustainable development, long-term partnerships and continuous improvement.
Thank you to our customers and partners
We would like to thank our customers, suppliers and partners for their continued trust and support. This recognition is something we are proud to share with everyone who has contributed to Europlaz’s journey and success.
Looking ahead
The winners of the Lloyds British Business Excellence Awards 2026 will be announced at a gala ceremony later this year at Grosvenor House in London.
While we await the outcome, we are incredibly proud to have reached the finalist stage and to be recognised among some of the UK’s most successful and ambitious businesses. Whatever the result, being shortlisted for The Vistage Growth Business of the Year Award is a significant milestone for Europlaz and a testament to the hard work, dedication and expertise of our entire team.
