Wrapping up
a great 2014

The National Fenestration

the esteemed GBA national business awards last November.

one of the UK’s most influential
individuals in manufacturing in
The Manufacturer Top 100 list.
A panel of expert judges from
within the industry selected the
individuals who characterise
those important traits that help
support and develop UK manufacturing.
The National Fenestration
Awards are the industry’s fastest
growing independent awards
event. Launched in 2013, they
aim to reward the very best of
the sector and are run and decided completely by the participation of the industry.
There was a massive increase in
votes cast this year, with voting
up by a staggering 293% on the
