British diving equipment manufacturer Apeks has been voted Brand Of The Year.
Apeks Marine Equipment, based in Blackburn in Lancashire, is part of the Aqualung Group.
The accolade comes from readers of DIVER magazine, the UK-based publication.
Apeks products – its regulators in particular – are highly regarded by many British divers.
The company also makes instruments, BCDs and wings, valves and many other components for scuba diving.
Apeks is also a supplier to the military and commercial underwater fields.
Of the win, an Apeks spokesman said: “This is a great honour and we really appreciate the award. We would like to thank all the readers who voted for us.
“We will continue to invest in the future of diving ensuring our products and services offer high quality, top performance and total reliability.”
