A big well done to the winners this year and commiserations to those who missed out this year.

Awards are important on two fronts, not only public recognition of a company or person doing great work, but it’s also confirmation to that winner that what they’re doing is paying off for them. There aren’t too many opportunities in our industry where companies are rewarded for their exploits, other than awards schemes like these.

The UK glazing awards season is not over however! At the time of writing this there remains 11 days in which to place your votes in the 2016 National Fenestration Awards campaign. I have looked at the breakdown of votes across all 17 categories and each one is still to close to call. Usually at this time of year there are one or two categories where you can see a winner start to emerge. Not this year. Every single one can still be decided by just a few votes.

If you’re already registered on the NFA site you can click here to go straight to the category dashboard and start placing your votes in each category. If you’re not yet registered but wish to take part you can click here to go to the registration page. It only takes a minute, and once you’ve clicked a confirmation link we send you via email, you’re all set and ready to go. Your vote could make all the difference!

A big well done to all the G Awards winners, and a big good luck to all the finalists in the NFAs!
