Judging, Awards & Merits
Entries will be judged by members of an independent panel of experts who will review the submitted documents and rate entries from 1-10. Up to 7 key attributes will be assessed (see below).
Note that entries must achieve a minimum score in order to qualify as a finalist. In addition, companies may win up to a total of three times across categories in a given year.
The entry in a given category with the highest total across all attributes will be declared the winner. Runners up will receive a merit for one attribute in which they rated highest, individually.
7 Key Attributes Judged*
- Novelty
- Effectiveness
- Sustainability
- Safety and Stability
- Practicality and Ease of Use
- Relevance to Parameter Measured (Testing category only)

*Where relevant; not all attributes are relevant for all entry types

Finalists will be notified and publicized across all C&T media platforms by February 2027. Winners will be announced at the exclusive awards reception in 2027 (details forthcoming).
