The 2019 Bulk Handling Awards took place in Melbourne last night to recognise the individuals and companies that went above and beyond in the bulk handling sector.
The bulk handling awards are Australia’s only dedicated event that specifically focuses on the outstanding achievements and successes in the bulk industry.
More than 130 attendees came to the Showtime Events Centre from across Australia to support the finalists at a gala dinner, sponsored by SEW-Eurodrive, Komatsu, Schenck Process, Australian Mining and BULK2020.
