The winners will be announced at the awards dinner in Amsterdam on 25 June this year during the International Rental Exhibition (IRE) and European Rental Association (ERA) convention.

The awards are jointly run by IRN magazine and ERA. Ritchie Bros is the Gold Sponsor for the awards, with Caterpillar, Grindex and Hilti confirmed as Silver Sponsors.

The awards are open to any rental company operating in Europe, whether an ERA member or not, while the product of the year award is for products made commercially available in Europe during 2013.
