4 Cladding Shortlisted for LEEA Excellence in People Award 2026
We are proud to announce that 4 Cladding has been shortlisted for the LEEA Excellence in People Award 2026, recognising our commitment to employee development, technical expertise and investing in our team.
Organised by the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA), the annual awards celebrate outstanding achievements across the lifting equipment industry, recognising companies that demonstrate excellence in safety, innovation, training and professional development.
Investing in Our People
At 4 Cladding, we believe that investing in our people is essential to delivering the high standards of service, safety and technical expertise our customers expect.
Our shortlisting reflects our ongoing commitment to developing our team’s skills through industry-recognised training and qualifications.
100% of our lifting accessories technicians have now achieved the LEEA Lifting Accessories Diploma, an industry-recognised qualification covering the testing, inspection, examination and maintenance of lifting accessories.
By investing in training across the team, rather than relying on just one or two qualified individuals, we have strengthened our in-house technical capabilities and ensured that our customers benefit from knowledgeable, competent staff.
A Commitment to Training and Technical Excellence
As a specialist supplier of vacuum lifting and material handling equipment for the roofing, cladding, glazing and construction industries, maintaining high standards of technical knowledge is a key priority.
Having a fully qualified team of lifting accessories technicians reinforces our commitment to equipment safety, reliability and professional service, giving customers additional confidence when hiring or purchasing equipment from 4 Cladding Services.
Tom Spence, Managing Director at 4 Cladding, comments:
“Investing in our people is one of the most important things we can do as a business. It is more than just achieving qualifications, it provides an opportunity to develop our team’s skills and contribute to company growth.
“This is why we were committed to putting all six team members through the training, rather than just one or two senior members.
“Now, we have multiple team members with the knowledge and confidence to carry out their work to the highest standards. We are proud of what the team has achieved, including being shortlisted for the Excellence in People Award.”
Celebrating Excellence in the Lifting Industry
The LEEA Awards recognise organisations and individuals making a positive contribution to the lifting equipment industry, promoting best practice, safety and professional development.
Being shortlisted for the Excellence in People Award is a fantastic achievement for our team and reflects the importance we place on continuous learning and development.
The winners will be announced at the LEEA Awards ceremony on Tuesday 24 November 2026, at the Rum Warehouse in Liverpool.
We look forward to celebrating alongside other industry professionals and would like to congratulate all those shortlisted.
