Further, the company is also renowned for its delivery of charitable support locally, including financial help for schools, charities, food banks and other worthy causes. Bosch Rexroth is a significant asset to the Scottish engineering industry and it’s a privilege to be able to present them with this award.”

Commenting on the achievement Bosch Rexroth UK managing director, Alastair Johnstone said: “The Scottish Engineering outstanding achievement award is a fantastic recognition of the significant work and commitment by everyone connected with the facility over a number of years.
