BouwBeurs Awards

What are the innovations and novelties in the construction industry?

The BouwBeurs Awards show you what every construction specialist cannot ignore in the coming year. The election was created by the organisers of BouwBeurs to draw more attention to the innovations in the industry during trade fair.

For the BouwBeurs Awards, there are three categories: Environmental Impact, Smart & Efficient and Tools & Craftsmen. There are three nominees per category and soon there will be one winner per category. However, visitors to BouwBeurs 2025 can choose from all the nominated products and determine the winner of the Audience Award.

The following 9 innovations were nominated by the expert jury for one of the awards.

The Jury

Vote for the Audience Award

Environmental impact

Products, services and concepts that contribute in the short term to making construction more circular and promoting sustainability in the built environment. The entries create a better planet, answer the demand for sustainable and responsible solutions in new construction and renovation. They offer the traditional column tools to innovate, change and stay future-proof.

To category Environmental impact

Smart & Efficient

Technologies that allow smarter and more efficient construction than traditional construction methods. Digitisation and/or industrialisation can save more time and therefore money, making a construction process faster and smoother. Moreover, some smart technologies also require less manpower. With this, it also helps solve other challenges such as personnel shortages.

To category Smart & Efficient

Tools & Craftsmen

This category is the domain of the workplace. The domain of human beings who have to make it. Products, services or concepts that lighten the work, make it easier, or make it attractive to the craftsman. A practical category, in which the well-being and welfare of the craftsman is paramount. Think tools and trade methods. Smart solutions that benefit the people on the shop floor, whom we so desperately need.
