A.N. Technology was established in 1987 and is winning the Award for the first time. It designs, manufactures and supports nuclear measurement systems for nuclear safeguards, nuclear waste characterisation and radiation measurement.
It markets these in Europe and Japan thorough a network of Agents and in the USA through its subsidiary company in Denver. The UK Company supports its efforts by attending international exhibitions, presenting scientific papers at conferences, visiting major customers and offering fast deliveries. It boasts a 100 page catalogue providing product and technical information.
Product innovations and development are also key to marketing success which has seen the company sales double over the last three years whilst maintaining exports in excess of 90%.
NIA congratulates ANTECH on their achievement and we also send our congratulations to NIA member company Mott MacDonald the management, development and engineering consultancy who have also won the same award. This is the third Queen's Award for international performance in nine years for Mott MacDonald. Building on its 1996 and 1998 awards Mott MacDonald doubled its exports between 2000 and 2002 (the period covered by the latest award). Last year's international earnings - from work in over 100 countries - reached £203 million.
