The 2022 edition of the program is now under way, offering manufacturers an incredible marketing vessel. Architizer\u2019s A+Product Awards were designed to help manufacturers and architects equally succeed in their trades. Manufacturers are encouraged to submit their cutting-edge products to one (or several) of 50+ award categories. Following submission, an impressive jury of over 200 renowned and specifying architects will judge, decide and pick the winning products of the year. Following this, a comprehensive list outlining the winners and best products from the A+Product Awards is published, which heavily circulates on a global scale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The A+Product Awards offer the marketing benefits of a traditional publication mixed with the benefits of having your product acclaimed and supported by a panel of the globe’s leading architects. <\/span> Architizer\u2019s impressive global audience reaches over 400 million and is recognized as an important voice in design.

1.\u00a0 Architectural Design<\/strong><\/p>\n

Merging the gap between functionality and creativity is often a challenge for architects. Hence why products that serve both purposes are extremely sought after by designers. The Architectural Design Award recognizes products that are integral to a structure\u2019s envelope and form. Products such as fa\u00e7ade systems, cladding, glazing, doors, roofing and flooring are all eligible to apply. This award is perfect for manufacturers that have functional, flexible and aesthetically pronounced products which allow architects to realize their creative design while retaining the structure\u2019s integrity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Positive Impact\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The world has lived through unprecedented times these past few years. Following a pandemic, an ongoing war, natural disasters, job losses and so much more, now more than ever we require architecture that responds to the hardships society and environments have faced. This year\u2019s Positive Impact Award is dedicated to products that strongly impact and benefit society and the environment. Eligible products are those that demonstrate a strong humanitarian effort, products that are non-harmful to the environment and people, and products that are accessible to all socio-economic communities. This award is perfect for manufacturers who have an impactful and society-benefitting product they want to share with the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Health & Wellness\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The healthcare sector has taken a hit these past few years while navigating a pandemic, making this award incredibly pertinent today. Now more than ever, health and wellness are a top priority and today we see a plethora of new wellness and medical care concepts emerging. This award is dedicated to innovative products and materials designed for healthcare and wellness settings. Any product designed for hospitals, clinics or temporary care facilities is eligible for this award. Moreover, products that can be implemented in wellness settings – such as spas, bathhouses, wellness retreats, bathrooms and bathhouses – are equally eligible to apply. Manufacturers boasting a product that benefits the medical and wellness sector are encouraged to apply for this award!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
