BiKBBI CEO Damian Walters commented, “Following the launch of the BiKBBI Awards back in 2021, the continued year-on-year growth we see, in both entry numbers and support, demonstrates just how important the recognition and reward of installation is, not just to installers themselves, but to the wider KBB industry who rely on this vital workforce. Each year, we are delighted by the number of entries we receive, and we also get to see and hear about the talented and hardworking businesses and individuals that make up our sector – from installers and apprentices to installation businesses and installation managers. The great thing about the BiKBBI Awards is that it provides a platform for all areas of the sector to get involved and celebrate the achievements of their installation communities.”
The BiKBBI Awards 2025 winners will be announced at a Gala Dinner ceremony at London’s prestigious QEII Centre, Westminster, on Tuesday, 4 February 2025, in conjunction with event partner InstallerSHOW, and in support of BiKBBI’s chosen charity partner, Band of Builders.
Walters continued “These awards are only possible thanks to our awards sponsors and those that support the programme by entering either themselves or someone else. It was great to see so many businesses come together in recognition of KBB installation at the 2024 Awards, and to be joined on stage by many worthy winners on the night. We hope to exceed the number of entries this year and to honour even more examples of excellence in our sector.”
