You pick the winners: vote in the second annual Most Innovative Products Contest at the World...

The debut of Hanley Wood's Most Innovative Products competition was a resounding success at last year's World of Concrete 2003. This unique competition allowed a panel of experts and attendants at the show to select from more than 1.30 products in 11 categories to determine what they thought

This year's contest will include both the Experts' Choice and the Attendees' Choice awards. However, this time around, the editors of CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION, THE CONCRETE PRODUCER, MASONRY CONSTRUCTION, and CONCRETE & MASONRY CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTS pored over all entries, drawing on their industry knowledge and experience to choose the finalists. Although the process was difficult, we have decided to be a bit more selective but offer awards in more categories.

We have expanded the categories to 13, covering both the masonry and concrete arenas. Now, we submit to you a selection of the Most Innovative Products entries and ask you to pick which items you think are the best and brightest the construction industry has to offer. It's a tough job, but we know you can do it.

To participate, see the Most Innovative Products displays around the show floor. Pick up a ballot, and let your voice be heard.

Vote and receive discounts

Voters during the show will get a discount on apparel purchases at the World of Concrete Bookstore.

All voters will also be eligible to enter a drawing for three round-trip plane tickets to World of Concrete 2005 in Las Vegas.
