BiKBBI CEO, Damian Walters, commented: “The BiKBBI Awards is an important platform to recognise and reward excellence in installation – a vital and often overlooked area of the KBB industry and we are delighted to see continued year-on growth both in terms of the number of entries but also in the number of businesses getting involved.
“This year has been a tough one for many businesses, with lots of uncertainty and distraction and therefore the support and involvement from all areas of the industry means more than ever before.
“This year’s finalists should be in no doubt that being a finalist is a cause for celebration in itself and we look forward to celebrating with them in February at the BiKBBI Awards presentation.
“It is so important that the installation sector is recognised for the role that it plays in the industry, and special thanks goes to those businesses that are sponsoring the 2025 Awards – their commitment and support is what makes both the Awards programme and the presentation event possible.”

Sintered stone manufacturer Neolith has launched Calacatta Roma and Cappadocia Sunset, inspired by nature and classical architecture, and for use in kitchens or bathrooms walls, floors, in gardens or facades.
They belong to The New Classtone and Fusioncollections which interpret marble and natural stone, respectively, and boast Neolith’s antibacterial NeolEAT technology.
Inspired by Ancient Rome, Calacatta Roma (pictured top) pays homage to Italian Carrara marble, with ochre and grey veins in a white background.
While the Cappadocia region, in central Turkey, with its rock formations formed by volcanoes and underground cities, has inspired Cappadocia Sunset (pictured below).

Just like all of Neolith’s surfaces, Calacatta Roma and Cappadocia Sunset are resistant to heat and atmospheric conditions, are 100% recyclable, and do not contain added quartz to their formulation.
