BEST NEW PRODUCT AWARDS

Don’t miss this chance to feature your new product to the press during the show, and potentially generate priceless publicity in the months beyond. It’s easy, and free to you, as a valued GLM exhibitor.

EX·TRACTS Best New Product Awards showcase new products presented at the show, in five categories - Bath & Body, Natural/Organic, Beauty Accessory, Cosmetic & Fragrance, Packaging - as well one overall “Best of Show” distinction. All exhibitors in the EX·TRACTS division (Javits Center Level One) are invited to participate.

Home Textiles Market Week® Best New Product Awards showcase new products presented at the show, in four categories – Bed, Bath, Dining, Home Accessories - as well one overall “Best of Market” distinction. All exhibitors in the At Home featuring Home Textiles division (Javits Center Level One) are invited to participate.

Editors of leading trade and consumer publications are invited to review and score all competition entries based upon design innovation; creative use of materials/construction; and new materials/technology. Judging will be conducted booth-to-booth on the exhibit floor, between 9:30am and 12 Noon on Monday of the show.

Exhibitors may submit one new product in each of the competition categories. Score sheets will list company name, booth number and product name for each registered entry. All new product submissions must be clearly identified, using the official competition entry card, within each competitor’s booth. Participation is free, but advance registration is required. Competition entry cards will be available to all exhibitors onsite at the Javits Center during set-up.

Best New Product Award winners will be notified on Monday after 3pm. A list of winners, with booth numbers, will be posted onsite at the Javits Center. A press release announcing winners and finalists will be issued to the trade and consumer press, and posted on the show’s website, on Tuesday of the show. Photographs of winners, and winning products, will be distributed to the press as part of our post-show publicity efforts.
