The flat glass manufacturers also won the Health and safety action award while Saint-Gobain Glass UK and Ardagh Glass Packaging were both double winners on the night. The former took home the Design of the year – flat glass and Strengthening business through people awards with the latter awarded the Sustainable practice and Marketing impact categories.  

Other winners included Beatson Clark’s Dana Godfrey winning the Rising Star award, Encirc securing the Innovative solution prize and Stoelzle Flacconage’s One Gin coming out on top in the Design of the year – container award. 

British Glass CEO Dave Dalton said: 

“It has been another testing year for the glass sector and while may of the problems we have faced still persist, it is a great pleasure to gather everybody together at the Glass Focus Awards again to celebrate all the achievements our great industry has accomplished. 

“As always, the level of entries for each of the categories has been spectacular and wide ranging. From showcasing our talent for innovation and our status as pioneers on the journey towards net zero to the beautiful designs we see every day on our bottles and buildings and the unrivalled talent that makes up our workforce, it is a reminder of why the glass industry stands in a class of its own.
