Capel Groundworks, Folkestone, Take Top Award At The First Ever Marshalls Register Awards

Capel Groundworks of Folkestone was presented recently with the first ever prestigious title of ‘Best Use of a new Marshalls’ Product’ at the inaugural Marshalls Register Awards 2008.

The Awards organised by Marshalls plc, the UK’s leading hard landscaping manufacturer, were created to celebrate excellence in hard landscaping design and installation within its membership of Registered Installers.

Covering a range of categories from ‘Best Driveway’ to ‘Best Use of Marshalls Ethically Sourced Haworth Moor Sandstone’, the Awards attracted several hundred project submissions from its 1000 strong associated Member companies from all around the UK.

David Jessop, Operations Manager, Marshalls Register, said:

“I am delighted for Chris & Mike Pile of Capel Groundworks in receiving this Award. The new driveway and covered hard standing project in Dover was of the highest quality.”

The Awards were launched by Marshalls last spring to its Marshalls Register of Approved Landscape Contractors and Driveway Installers. Although they are not directly employed by Marshalls, they do abide by a strict code of installation practice and are regularly vetted by Marshalls’ assessors.

To reach the final, Marshalls held 12 regional events around the UK with 55 companies receiving Regional Awards. These were then pitched against each other to make the shortlist in the relevant categories for the final Awards presentation.
