Heerenveen/NL (Dutch Aluminium Centre) – Companies with an innovative product that incorporates aluminium can win an important prize by taking part in this year’s European Aluminium Award. Winning a prestigious prize such as this European Aluminium Award not only recognises your innovative approach to business, but is also an important stimulus that helps to promote your company. The Awards will be handed out during the International World Trade Fair Aluminium 2008, which is held on 23-25 September 2008 at Messe Essen in Germany.
Designers, manufacturers, builders and constructors can enter into various categories for the 6th European Aluminium Award 2008 Industrial Design & Engineering. The competition is held every 2 years. The Aluminium Award is given to products or projects in which aluminium has been applied in an innovative manner. An independent jury makes a selection from the nominated entries. Every company that has an aluminium innovation can enter and both industrial and consumer products can take part. The closing date for submission is 1st July 2008.
The European Aluminium Award is an initiative of the Dutch Aluminium Centre. For this sixth edition a wide base has been acquired through the support of the European Aluminium Association (EAA), the GDA – the German Aluminium Association – and Aluminium 2008, the largest trade show in the area of Aluminium in the world. In addition, the leading companies Alcan, Alcoa and Hydro Aluminium are now involved as main sponsors of the competition.
In connection with the wide spectrum of ‘Industrial Design & Engineering’ this year six European Aluminium Awards will be given in two categories:
- Consumer Products
- Industrial Products
Three Awards will be given for each category.
For Consumer Products there are Awards for Design, Durability and Innovation. The Industrial Products category is divided into “Automotive and Transport”, “Building and Construction” and “Mechanical Engineering and Electronics”. In addition, the Jury is free to give a Jury Award for a special achievement.
The European Aluminium Award 2008 Design & Engineering is given during the Award Gala on Tuesday, 23 September at the International Trade Fair Aluminium 2008 at Messe Essen, Germany. All entries will be on display during the show in the Galeria, the dazzling heart of Aluminium 2008, the International Trade Fair & Conference, that lasts from 23 September to 25 September. Some 16,000 visitors and more than 700 exhibiting companies are expected from more than 40 countries.
