The GAI Community Awards celebrate the very best businesses and individuals in the architectural ironmongery industry, with categories for achiever, company innovation, customer focus, leadership, and fellowship.
Hosting a ceremony with more than 300 guests, GAI Chief Executive Simon Forrester said:
“These awards are held to raise the profile of exceptional commitment, innovation, customer focus, leadership and achievement throughout our sector.
“As the chair of the judging panel I first want to congratulate everyone who was nominated for one of today’s awards. The standard was incredibly high and each category was extremely competitive.
“But of course there must be winners. And all of today’s winners were able to demonstrate that extra special something, that understanding of the need to really go the extra mile, which separates the exceptional from the very good.”GAI Community Award winners were announced in the following categories:
