2022 ABMA Innovation Award Nominations Deadline

The American Brush Manufacturers Association (ABMA) is now accepting nominations for the William A. Cordes Innovation Excellence Award.

Entries for the award will be accepted until November 30, 2021, and the award presentation will be made at the ABMA Annual Convention in March 2022 at the Hyatt Coconut Point in Bonita Springs, Fla.

The Innovation Award recognizes outstanding innovation of manufactured products, components or services in the brush, broom, mop and roller industry and is named after William A. Cordes, who served as the ABMA’s first President from 1917-1928. The 2021 award winner was The Wooster Brush Company’s Shortcut Hook & Hold Angle Sash Paintbrush.

ABMA President Greg Miller says, “The ABMA Innovation Award competition is a great opportunity for companies to showcase their innovative products, components and services to the industry, and to the larger audience served by customers, users and consumers as well. It gives the greater industry a wonderful opportunity to see just how innovative, creative and vibrant we are as brushmakers.”
