KBB Birmingham launches Innovation Awards 2020 programme

KBB Birmingham, Europe’s largest biennial kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms event, has launched its Innovation Awards 2020 programme. The awards aim to recognise the most forward-thinking solutions in the industry, with all KBB Birmingham exhibitors being encouraged to enter a new method, idea or product that celebrates innovation before winners are announced at the show in March 2020.

The kitchen manufacturer Blum has been confirmed as the Innovation Awards partner for the 2020 event, and the judging panel will feature leading professionals who represent different areas of the KBB market including design, technical, journalism, and industry backgrounds.
