Outstanding Contribution Award For GAP Hire Solutions


GAP Hire Solutions, the UK’s largest independent hire company, has once again raised the bar by winning the Outstanding Contribution to Specialist Construction award at the 2024 CN Specialist Awards. Known for its drive towards innovations and industry-leading practices, GAP continues to revolutionise the construction sector with its integrated, sustainable solutions.

GAP Hire Solutions, the UK’s largest independent hire company, has been honoured with the Outstanding Contribution to Specialist Constriction award at the 2024 CN Specialists Awards.

The award recognises GAP’s exceptional commitment to innovation and efficiency, driven by the seamless collaboration of its Pump Services, Environmental Services and Tanker Services divisions. Together, these divisions have meticulously crafted a one-stop-shop for construction dewatering, addressing the unique challenges faced by clients with precision and expertise.

One of the standout features of this project is the paradigm shift it brings to the long-term management of construction dewatering, offering significant benefits to both clients and the environment. By providing a fully managed service, including regular clarifier emptying, GAP not only saves clients valuable on-site time but also delivers a more efficient, sustainable solution that reduces environmental impact.

The CN Specialist Awards judges praised GAP Hire Solutions for its strong focus on sustainability and innovative solutions. They highlighted the end-to-end integration of standalone services into a single, cohesive system, offering transparency and traceability for Scope 1 & 2 emissions, while easing pressure on national infrastructure. The panel was impressed by GAP’s passion for its unique approach and the clear demonstration of its quality and impact on the construction industry.

Karen Greenshields, Managing Director – Technical and Environmental Services, commented: “We are delighted to win the prestigious award of Outstanding Contribution to Specialist Construction. Our turnkey dewatering solution brings together specialist expertise focused on sustainable ways to move and treat wastewater. We have fantastic teams across our business, which has enabled GAP to be the first hire solution company to be able to provide this service in-house.”

This award exemplifies GAP’s commitment to advancing the construction industry through pioneering and innovative solutions, with sustainability at the forefront. By integrating environmental considerations into their services, GAP aims to exceed regulatory standards for sustainable practices. This holistic approach contributes to reducing the environmental footprint of construction sites and ensures a positive impact on both the industry and the planet.
