The much-anticipated Offsite Awards returns this year to the Coventry Building Society Arena on 19 September for an evening of celebration and success sharing.
In a year of much change and innovation, offsite businesses are rising to meet challenges and obstacles - designing and delivering the next generation of future-forward and sustainable buildings.
With 23 categories covering all aspects of the offsite industry, from modular technology to digital construction, competition amongst the entries has been fierce.
The number of entries received this year has been extremely high, with multiple examples of outstanding projects showcasing the best in design, product and system ingenuity.
Tasked with selecting the finalists from the entries received the judging panel faced some tough decisions due to the high calibre of projects and buildings presented. However, after much deliberation, the finalists for the 2023 Offsite Awards are now announced.
The Offsite Awards team would like to congratulate the finalists, who will join industry leaders, fellow finalists and judges at a dedicated awards ceremony where the overall winners will be revealed. The awards evening, co-located with Offsite Expo, promises to bring together the best of the best in the sector.
The Offsite Awards celebrate the projects - large and small - making transformational changes to how we design, build and deliver structures. Recognition as an Offsite Awards finalist positions companies at the forefront of the offsite construction industry, helping to demonstrate and drive the benefits of prefabrication and factory-based methods, products, systems and disciplines to the wider market.
Previous finalist and winning projects from companies like Tilbury Douglas Engineering, Algeco and B&K Structures have enjoyed extensive industry media coverage. Projects from the 2022 Offsite Awards have featured on BBC News and in publications such as The Metro, Offsite Magazine, PBC Today and The Architects Journal.
