Exceptional winners revealed at INCA Awards 2016

The Insulated Render and Cladding Association (INCA) has hosted its 2015 Awards, presented by rugby union star Martin Bayfield at a black-tie gala dinner on Thursday, October 20, in front of over 250 industry guests.

INCA says its Awards have become the highlight of the industry calendar, celebrating successes in external wall insulation (EWI) and showcasing innovation and design of the highest standard.

Project of the Year was awarded to Sto and Astley Facades for their work on the Islands Project at Chester Zoo which stood out for its complexity and interesting use of EWI, proving just what the industry can achieve.

Winners of the new Architectural Design Award were architects Brimelow McSweeney, with Sto and Regency Plastering, for their exceptional use of cladding to enhance the original features of Hop House.

Other winners on the night included Alsecco UK, British Gas, C & P Plastering, Saint-Gobain Weber, SERS Energy Solutions and SPSenvirowall.

Past INCA chairman David Harrison was awarded with the Outstanding Achievement Award for his contribution to making INCA the professional and strategic organisation it is today.

In her welcome speech on the night, Katie Nurcombe, director of INCA, launched a new campaign, Just INCAse to demonstrate the quality of its membership.

The new campaign makes it clear that anyone looking to specify or buy external wall insulation (EWI) should ‘choose quality workmanship every time’ and ‘look for the logo you can trust’.

Mitch Gee, chairman at INCA, said: “It is an honour to have been elected INCA chairman at a time when there is so much potential for EWI. The achievements of INCA members at this year’s awards prove that EWI has already become the ‘go to cladding’ for both new build and refurbishment projects.

“EWI provides innovative solutions for housing, schools and hospitals, can completely transform the appearance of existing buildings and improve the lives of the communities that live in them.”
