Hurst Doors shortlisted for hat-trick of G-Awards

Hurst Doors has been shortlisted as a finalist in three categories at this year’s G-Awards.

Making the final cut in the ‘Fabricator of the Year’, ‘New Product of the Year’ and ‘Promotional Campaign of the Year’ groups, Mark Atkinson, Sales Director at Hurst Doors acknowledged the achievement.

“The G-Awards represent the brightest and best that the UK glass and glazing industry has to offer, so just to be shortlisted is an honour in itself,” he said.

“The fact that we’ve made the final in each of the three categories we entered also reflects the hard work of our team, and our consistent dedication to industry excellence, in everything that we do.”

The past 12 months has seen a sustained programme of investment, product development and customer service at the Yorkshire-based door manufacturer, including the launch of Securicore™, which has contributed to the UK’s first PAS24-accredited 28mm glazed PVC-U panel doorset.

The result of a rigorous two-year R&D programme, Securicore™ offers enhanced security, high thermal performance and recyclability in a cost-effective format. Rewriting expectations in the panel door sector, this ground-breaking innovation has earned Hurst its ‘New Product of the Year’ nomination.

In addition, Hurst’s latest promotional campaign, which marks a step-change in how composite doors are marketed and sold, has made the ‘Promotional Campaign of the Year’ shortlist. Mixing Augmented Reality (AR) tools with a cohesive suite of customer-facing resources, Hurst has given every installer ‘a mobile showroom in their back pocket’.

“We are up for these accolades, as well as the coveted ‘Fabricator of the Year’, because Hurst is more than just a manufacturer,” added Mark.

“We are a business that invests, innovates and supports our valued customers and our staff, many of whom have been with us for more than 20 years.

“Fully committed to people and progress, our aim is to redefine the standard for door manufacturing in the UK and set a blueprint for the future. We’re very proud that our efforts have been recognised by the G-Awards with these three award shortlistings.

“It’s great to be part of such a creative, professional and forward-thinking industry and we’d like to wish our fellow finalists the best of luck.”
