Bringing together academia, Government and industry, the first ever The Manufacturer Top 100 list of influential individuals in UK manufacturing was announced in 2014 and featured HL Plastics’ MD Roger Hartshorn among other industry heavyweights.
The list was nominated by readers of The Manufacturer magazine, the wider industrial community and the public to highlight individuals for their contributions in changing the face of industry, finding new markets, and making marked investment in people, processes and customers.
Roger was joined on the list by a whole host of prestigious entrepreneurs such as JCB’s Lord Bamford, Dr Hamid Mughal of Rolls-Royce and Dyson founder, James Dyson.
