The British Institute of Kitchen, Bedroom & Bathroom Installation (BiKBBI) has announced the shortlist of finalists for its second annual Installation Awards, dedicated to recognising and rewarding excellence in the KBB installation sector.
This year saw more than 130 submissions and nominations, with all entries scored by an independent panel of judges representing businesses and media from the KBB industry, ultimately producing our shortlist of 48 finalists across the twelve categories.
BiKBBI CEO Damian Walters said: "In 2021 we launched our first ever awards programme which proved very popular, and the subsequent awards ceremony evening was a great success, providing solid foundations for us to build on. In year two, I am delighted to report that we have seen an increase in entries of around 25%. Even more encouraging was the quality of each and every submission – such effort clearly demonstrates that an awards programme focused on installation has not only been welcomed but is being widely adopted by our sector. Awards are a great way to acknowledge and reward excellence and best practice, but they are also vital to improving standards and creating benchmarks in our industry."
The winners of all 11 categories, along with the winner of the BiKBBI Special Recognition Award will be announced at an Awards ceremony at the QEII Centre in London’s Westminster on the evening of 7th February 2023. Tickets for the 2023 BiKBBI Awards are now on sale – more information on the event and the awards programme can be found HERE.
