30th Celebration – Awards Ceremony

We are celebrating our 30th year in business, and to mark this milestone, we thought it was important to recognise the special team members who have helped us become who we are today. We have been fortunate to have an amazing team working for us, and they deserve all the recognition they receive. Although we could only give out a number of awards, many more people deserve recognition for their hard work and dedication, day in and day out. We decided to present awards for the following categories: Apprentice of the Year, Rising Star, Significant Contribution to H&S, Others First Award, Character Award, Best Manager Award, and Directors Award. Additionally, we are honouring those who have been with us for 20+ years with our Long Service Awards.

The Top Tubes Award

We decided to use our highly capable teams to custom design our own Top Tubes awards in-house. We asked our CNC design team to experiment and have fun in designing these awards, allowing them to truly demonstrate their skills and talents. They did not disappoint! Our awards are made from our coil slit steel, then rolled on our ERW tube mill, and finally crafted using our advanced laser cutting machines. We are truly impressed by the skills of our team. This is an award for the team made by our team!

This does not stop here! We believe this demonstrates our ability to cater to a diverse range of needs and industries. Contact us today to see how we can help your bespoke designs come to life.

Victor Winchester
Significant Contribution to H&S  

While we recognise that all our employees have contributed to improving H&S at Top Tubes, we asked the management team to nominate one person who made a significant contribution. The winner of this award was Victor Winchester. Victor’s role at Top Tubes is Trainer/Assessor. He works with all employees to train them in various areas to perform their jobs safely and efficiently. Victor carried out over 20 different types of safety training. He has also been involved in investigations related to H&S and assists with drug and alcohol testing.

Roger Kinsey – Others First Award  

This award applauds an employee who always puts others before themselves and is willing to go the extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction, whether internal or external. We received over 44 nominations for this award, making it very difficult to choose one winner! Roger has worked for Top Tubes for over 10 years, and we have heard many positive comments about how he is always ready to help others and go above and beyond his role.

Warren Russon – Character Award  

This award is given to an employee who embodies high values, consistency, and dedication. The Character Award applauds an employee who is unwilling to cut corners, helping maintain the quality of our service and encouraging employees to challenge themselves rather than bend to unforeseen challenges.
