Rolls-Royce subsidiary L’Orange, which produces injection systems, awarded its prize for best component supplier to Zsnojemské Strojírnsi from the Czech Republic. The company manufactures machine components and assemblies. The award for the best mtu Onsite Energy supplier went to Hotstart from the US for its engine preheating systems. All these winners can look back on over ten years of successful cooperation with Rolls-Royce Power Systems.
