Who Judges the Awards?

Each year the Pro Tool Innovation Awards are judged by a panel of industry professionals who handle and use hundreds of new tools each year. From personal use on the job site to exposure to tools at media events and industry trade shows, our team can spot innovation a mile away.

When are the Pro Tool Innovation Awards

When are the Awards?

Manufacturers are invited to the Pro Tool Innovation Awards by the beginning of Q3, allowing plenty of time to enter their products and have them judged in time for the holiday buying season, and important trade shows like STAFDA, NECA, World of Concrete, the SHOT Show, and The NAHB’s International Builders’ Show.
