Ending the year on a high
10 December 2013
Disposables UK has been crowned ‘Business of the Year’ at the 2013 Huddersfield Examiner Business Awards, following a successful year for the family-run Meltham-based business.

In its submission, Disposables UK demonstrated how it has overcome difficult trading conditions to grow the business, win new contracts, develop new products and improve operations over the past year.
The win marks the culmination of Disposables UK’s focus on growth and innovation this year, which has seen the company relocate its four previous sites into one large 150,000 sq ft state-of-the-art site. The awards took place on 14th November at the John Smith’s Stadium in Huddersfield.
Diane Storer was also selected as a finalist in the Forward Ladies Women in Business Awards 2013. Diane was recognised in the Manufacturing Business Woman of the Year category, for her role as chairman of Disposables UK, which she formed 26 years ago with her late husband, Trevor Storer.
