Visionary New Product Showcase & Awards
Visionary Participation 2025 Form - AVAILABLE SOON!
The AWFS®Fair Visionary New Product Awards are prestigious awards recognizing exhibitors for innovation and new-to-market products, which includes any product that has been introduced to the industry since the 2021 AWFS®Fair (July 2021). All companies whose entries are accepted will have their product featured in the Visionary New Product Showcase for the duration of the show. This showcase will be located in the main lobby in front of the West Hall and has proven to be one of the Fair’s most popular features. Products go head-to-head in the following categories: components; software; industry 4.0; raw materials; plastic machinery/supplies; tooling; machinery under 50K; machinery over 50K; power tools and hardware. Winners are selected by a panel of third-party judges.
More information on the AWFS Fair 2025 Visionary New Product Showcase & Awards will be AVAILABLE SOON. If you would like to preview our previous 2023 rules & regulations, click here.
