Construction News Image
Luton-based AJC Trailers are celebrating further successes in the 2018 Green Apple Awards.

Award organisers, The Green Organisation, have just released the 2018 finalists which confirm AJC Trailers' status as a winner in this highly sought after accolade.

The company has been nominated in the Environmental Best Practice 2018 category for their EcoSmart Solar product. This brand new product is designed to help to protect the environment using sustainable energy. EcoSmart Solar technology improves energy efficiency, reduces emissions and limits generator operation.

An operator of an AJC EasyCabin unit fitted with an EcoSmart Solar will benefit from an estimated 93% increase in energy efficiency when compared to a continually running 6.0kVA generator. The set-up has fully automatic operation, guaranteeing all essential services; i.e. hot water, lighting is always available.

Commenting on their nomination, Jav Samsa, AJC Trailer Managing Director, said: "To be selected for a second time is indeed an honour. This is a testament to the ingenuity of our engineering team along with the market awareness of our sales and marketing people. We have always believed that we are in the forefront of environmental excellence in our market sector and this second award backs up our beliefs."
