“Best Of” Event Awards

The “Best Of” Event Awards is an annual awards program for exhibiting companies whose product, program, service, business practice and/or booth design are considered to be “Best Of” in their class. Awards are segmented into six categories: Best Booth under 1,200 square feet, Best Booth above 1,200 square feet, Innovation, Style & Design, Sustainability, and Technology.

Award winners of “Best Of” SURFACES, sponsored by Floor Covering News, “Best Of” StonExpo/ Marmomacc Americas, sponsored by Stone World and Contemporary Stone & Tile Design Magazine, and “Best Of” TileExpo, sponsored by Tile Magazine are determined by a panel of judges appointed by the official publication sponsors. Winners will be announced and awarded at The International Surface Event 2017.  

“Best Of” Project Awards

The “Best Of” Product Awards provide attendees the opportunity to browse the newest and most innovative industry products before the event and gain additional information from the manufacturer while on the show floor at TISE. Prior to the show, exhibitors have the opportunity to submit their products into the awards program. Entered products are then featured in the TISE Product & Trends Lookbook and voted on by the industry before the event.  

The top 10 voted products will be promoted by the event with three final winners selected and awarded the “Best Of” Product Award: one for SURFACES, one for StonExpo/Marmomacc Americas, and one for TileExpo, to be presented to the winning exhibitors at TISE 2017. The 2017 “Best Of” Product Awards Program is sponsored by: Contemporary Stone & Tile Design, Floor Covering Installer, Floor Trends, Stone World and Tile Magazine.
