Dunphy Combustion Presented with King’s Award for Innovation at Rochdale Factory

Lord-Lieutenant of Greater Manchester and MP for Rochdale visit Dunphy HQ to present prestigious award:

Dunphy Combustion (https://www.dunphy-combustion.com/), a long-standing Rochdale-based engineering firm, was formally presented with the King’s Award for Enterprise: Innovation 2025 on Friday 3rd October, during a visit to their factory by The Lord-Lieutenant of Greater Manchester, Diane Hawkins, and Rochdale MP Paul Waugh.

The ceremony took place at Dunphy’s headquarters and manufacturing centre, where the company’s leadership team introduced both guests to staff members from across the business before giving a tour of the factory and showcasing the award-winning technology.

“It was an honour to welcome both the Lord-Lieutenant and our local MP to the Dunphy site,” said Sharon Kuligowski, Managing Director at Dunphy Combustion. “To receive this award in front of the very people who drive our success day in and day out made the moment even more special. We’re proud of our team, proud of our work, and proud to call Rochdale our home.”

Innovation Driving Industrial Decarbonisation:

Dunphy was named a recipient of the 2025 King’s Award for Enterprise in Innovation earlier this year in recognition of its pioneering work in hydrogen combustion technology – a key solution for decarbonising industrial heat systems.

At the heart of Dunphy’s innovation is a range of hydrogen-compatible burners, advanced fuel-blending systems, and intelligent digital control platforms that enable safe, efficient combustion while helping hard-to-abate sectors reduce emissions. These systems are already in use across power plants, pharmaceutical facilities, food processing sites, and major infrastructure projects around the world.
