Ten Years of Awards Success

The Bathrooms And Kitchens Industry Awards organised by Bathrooms And Kitchens Magazine took place on Monday night for the tenth year of recognising excellence in bathroom and kitchen design and business acumen. It was our biggest event to date, with over 920 people attending

‘This year's dinner was one of the most enjoyable in the ten or so years that I have been representing Ideal-Standard in its sponsorship of the Master Retailer Award for Bathrooms,’ said Roger Cooper of Ideal-Standard. ‘As well as the fun that Ruby Wax brought to the proceedings, it is important that good standards in the industry are maintained and recognised - and, in the Ideal-Standard Master Retailer Award, this ceremony has achieved that since its inception in 1994. Our industry is the better for it. Well done’.
The fifteen winners received their Awards from presenter, Ruby Wax who ruled the evening’s proceedings in her own inimitable fashion
