ENDOLINE Automation is celebrating after being named Gold Winner in the Exporter of the Year category at the Bedfordshire Chamber of Commerce SME Bedfordshire Business Awards 2026.

The achievement recognises the manufacturer’s international growth, engineering innovation, and commitment to supporting customers worldwide.

Endoline explained that exporting now represents a significant proportion of the firm’s business, with its end-of-line packaging automation systems installed in more than 30 countries through a combination of direct customer relationships, distributor partnerships and OEM collaborations.

Andrew Yates, MD of Endoline Automation, said, “We are delighted to have been named Gold Winner in the Exporter of the Year category and to have secured a place in the national finals. Exporting has been a key part of Endoline’s growth for many years, and this recognition reflects the dedication of our employees, distributors, partners and customers around the world.

“As a family-run business, we are proud to be designing and manufacturing British-built automation systems that are helping manufacturers across the globe improve efficiency, productivity and sustainability.”

The award win secures Endoline a place in the SME National Business Awards finals later this year.
