The entry deadline for the ESTA Awards of Excellence 2026 is approaching, with submissions closing on January 12. The awards, organised by the European association of abnormal road transport and mobile cranes (ESTA), will be held on April 16 at the Grand Hotel Huis ter Duin in Noordwijk aan Zee, the Netherlands.
There are 11 categories to choose from where entrants can showcase their recent crane and heavy transport projects, safety and training initiatives or their latest innovations. The Gino Koster Award, meanwhile, recognises an individual that has distinguished themselves in the field of abnormal transport and/or the mobile crane industry.
Participation is open to member companies of ESTA’s member associations, ESTA special members, affiliated members and supporter companies.
A participant may submit only one entry per category, with a maximum of three entries across the 10 categories. A particular job or project can be submitted in one category only, and the participant must have had full care, custody and control of the job/project.
Entries can be submitted via the ESTA website until January 12.
