Hybrid biocarbon solution ecoke, developed by CPL Products under Invica Industries, has won the Energy & Sustainability Award at the 2025 Make UK Manufacturing Regional Awards, recognising the impact of the approach in industrial decarbonisation.
The award honours UK manufacturers achieving measurable gains in energy efficiency, carbon reduction, and environmental innovation. Judges commended ecoke for its proven ability to reduce emissions in carbon-intensive sectors while maintaining the performance and reliability required for industrial use.
The win follows ecoke’s recent success at the Green Awards UK 2025, where it received the Green Transformation Award, cementing its status as a leader in sustainable materials technology.
“Winning the Energy & Sustainability Award from Make UK means so much, not just for me, but for the incredible team who make this work possible every day,” said Kayleigh Beardow, Communication Manager at Invica Industries. “More than anything, it demonstrates our work is being heard, sustainability matters, progress is happening, and together, we really can make a difference.”
Following this regional success, ecoke will now progress to the Make UK National Awards in January 2026, taking place in January 2026 at the Gala Dinner in London, where national winners will be announced.
Invica plans to expand the technology’s reach by forming new industry partnerships, launching further pilot projects, and scaling production across its 500,000-tonne manufacturing network to meet increasing market demand.
In parallel, ecoke has also been shortlisted for the Waste Management Energy Innovation Award at the MRW National Recycling Awards 2025.
With its hybrid biocarbon innovation, Invica Industries is positioning ecoke as a practical, scalable pathway to lower-carbon manufacturing — and a compelling example of UK engineering driving the energy transition.
