The winners of the British Coatings Federation (BCF) Awards 2017 were announced on 23 November at the annual BCF Awards in Cheshire, across eight categories showcasing brilliance in the coatings industry. 2017 saw the addition of two new Awards, the first of which for Young Leader of the Year which was won by Alison Henshaw from Fine Décor Wallcoverings. The second new Award for Corporate Social Responsibility saw HMG Paints honoured as the SME winner for their Paint the Town Green campaign and PPG Architectural Coatings in the multi-national category for their Community Engagement Programme. HMG Paints picked up a second Award, whose apprentice Darren James won the Coatings Training Institute Student of the Year. Also with two award wins was AkzoNobel; who picked up the Customer Service Award, with a programme which has proved to deliver impressive business improvements; and the Sustainable Innovation Award for their new factory in Ashington, their most sustainable plant ever. The Sustainable Innovation category saw an uptake in entries in 2017, also awarding a winner for Sustainable Innovation Supplier, which went to BYK-Gardner Q.C. Instruments for their industry standard instruments designed to simplify digital approval in the automotive industry. The Excellence in Training award was won by Fujichem Sonneborn, who impressed the judges the most with their overarching approach to training that focuses on competence over completion. Finally, the most long-standing award, the Coatings Care Overall Best Performer Award went to Crown Paints in Hull, and the Coatings Care Progress Award to the Tor Coatings site in Chester-le-Street. Tom Bowtell, BCF Chief Executive said, “In amongst the challenges that the industry faces, it is fantastic to take the opportunity to take a step back and see how the coatings industry continues to deliver outstanding performance across so many aspects of the business.” BCF Awards 2017 Winners:
