Simply the best
November 2016

It was a night to remember when a near-record 630 guests gathered to applaud the industry’s brightest and best in the G16 Awards at the Hilton, Park Lane, on Friday 18th November.

Thirteen winners came away with the coveted trophies at this, the thirteenth annual event and, say the judges, the choice of winners was down to anything but luck, with every single category proving a tougher decision than ever in choosing the best.

“The standard of entries was excellent, a clear reflection of the level of innovation and hard work that we have seen in the industry this year,” said organiser Tony Higgin.

“Every one of these 13 companies and individuals should be proud of their achievement as we are proud to recognise them with these trophies.”

Winner in the Best New Product category this year was Epwin Window Systems, pictured, with the Optima PVC-U system from Profile 22.
