The Haverhill-based cleanroom construction firm were shortlisted for their ongoing development of CleanCube Mobile Cleanrooms – a range of portable shipping container cleanrooms that feature the same property as Guardtech’s modular builds.
CleanCube previously received Federation of Small Businesses and SME Cambridgeshire Business Awards for innovation during the COVID-19 pandemic – with almost 50 container and vehicle conversion labs being utilised for critical PCR testing.
They are now being utilised for a range of Research & Development settings and Life Sciences applications, from Cell & Gene Therapy and Pharmaceutical manufacturing to Medical Device work.
Commercial director, Mark Wheeler said: “This is fantastic news – we’re super proud of the CleanCube team for yet another award nomination and we can’t wait for what is sure to be an amazing evening.
“We’re up against some brilliant companies in our category and will be among some of the leading lights in Life Sciences, so it’s sure to be an exciting and enlightening occasion.
“Being nominated for awards like this just reinforces our determination to continue to deliver world-class solutions that help our clients solve problems and operate more effectively.”

The awards evening showpiece will take place on 9th May at Leicester’s glitzy Athena venue.
Guardtech will be up against Ademen, Bioxhale, Eureka Invention and Neurotherapeutics in the Innovation category.
The ceremony will be hosted by Dr Christian Kumar, Medilink Midlands Entrepreneur in Residence and CEO of Medtech Makers Lab.
