The deadline for the British Furniture Association’s Future of Furniture Awards has been extended until the end of the month, giving businesses an additional two weeks to put forward projects focusing on sustainability and education.
The awards also recognise an individual who has gone above and beyond to champion sustainability in the workplace.
Judges for the Future of Furniture Awards include: Amanda Moore, MD of Achieve & Partners; and Jo Little, a sustainability expert at Planet Earth.
BFA MD Phil Spademan says: “Our Future of Furniture Awards are increasingly recognised as a hallmark of businesses that are forward-thinking and that recognise the value of innovation in sustainability and investment in their people.
“BFA members can enter any or all of the four categories and we’ve extended the deadline by two weeks to ensure member businesses have chance to take part.
“The Future of Furniture Awards are an opportunity to shine a spotlight on some of the excellent work around training and sustainability that is happening in our sector, and I strongly encourage all BFA members to enter.”
The award categories are Future of Excellence in Education, Future of Excellence in Sustainability Award, the Future of Excellence in ESG Reporting, and the Future of Excellence Sustainability Champion.
To enter, fill out a brief form and include a statement of no more than 500 words that demonstrates alignment with the criteria for each category. The awards will be presented at a reception at the BFA’s Furniture Component Expo, which takes place at the Telford International Centre on 19-20th March.
The new deadline for entries is 31st January.
