PROFILE 22 SHORTLISTED AS FINALIST FOR
THE 2014 SUSTAINABLE HOUSING AWARDS
Profile 22 and approved commercial
manufacturer, Polar Windows have been
shortlisted in the Transformation category
of the Sustainable Housing Awards 2014,
organised by Inside Housing magazine and its
sister publication Sustainable Housing.
These awards put the spotlight on the best
green social housing projects constructed in the
UK, and the organisations responsible for them.
The trophies will be presented at a ceremony
hosted by one of the world’s greatest living
explorers, Sir Ranulph Fiennes on Friday 17
October at the Lancaster London Hotel.

Emma Maier, editor of Inside Housing,
said: “Housing accounts for 25% of UK
carbon emissions, so reducing emissions from
new and existing homes is vital if the UK is
to meet its carbon reduction targets. Social
housing landlords have been at the forefront of
responding to that challenge.
“It is a brilliant achievement for Profile 22 and
Polar Windows to be shortlisted in the face of
such fierce competition. We are thrilled to be
able to host the awards ceremony that recognises
the work of the housing sector’s sustainable
pioneers.
