The public voting for the audience winners has been concluded. There have been 16,270 votes cast in the past 6 weeks. The TOP10 have now been determined.

After the jury announced the winners on March 3rd, the public was able to choose their winner online in a public voting on the www.gp-award.com website. For this purpose, the participants advertised their submissions in their communities and in addition our platform and media partners advertised the choices via their channels.

The 10 best concepts are all dedicated to sustainable material approaches that offer alternatives to existing systems or future solutions that would otherwise not have existed without a sustainable approach.

The 2020 voting broke all records: the nominees were seen 732,700 times online and 16,270 votes were cast.
