Fantastic to see the event so well attended
I THOUGHT THE awards were excellent. Clearly a massive amount of time and thought had been put into the preparation and organisation – and that really paid off. The venue, entertainment and hosts were
all great, along with all the Mancunian details to help pull it all together. It was also fantastic to see the event being so
well attended, even though it was away from the show in Birmingham/London. I think that is not only a good refl ection of Manchester’s current status, but also of the positivity within the industry in spite of the uncertain times. On a more personal note, we were also
Great stuff and brilliantly organised
happy to be able to get involved to help make the show carbon-neutral [HPP was a Sustainability Partner of the awards], which again is something that could have easily been overlooked, but is so relevant and something that we should all be thinking about.

We loved the tree- replanting concept
KALDEWEI IS delighted to have been a Sustainability Partner at the 2019 sell- out kbbreview Retail & Design Awards this year. This was a perfect fi t for Kaldewei’s ethical
manufacturing. We loved the innovative tree-replanting concept, creating a carbon-neutral event and long-lasting benefi ts to the wider community.

thoroughly Mancunian. Nice touch with the local beers at the table and the food was lovely, too. Great entertainment also and Steph McGovern was an inspired choice of host. Great stuff and brilliantly org -
anised. Everyone I’ve spoken to shares the same opinion.

It made us proud to be part of the UK KBB industry
THIS WAS our fi rst time as one of the sponsors of the awards – the welcome drinks in our case – and our two tables of Hettich colleagues and guests had a brilliant night. The level of entries was incredibly high and the overall quality of the event made us proud to be part of the UK KBB industry. The atmosphere proved that we can be serious about what we do, without always taking ourselves too seriously.
