ENTRY CRITERIA

Any new design or product created after 1 January 2009 in which the use of aluminium extrusions forms an integral part.

The competition is open to students or recent graduates whose design was initiated as a student.
For designs from a project team, entries are welcome from any member of the project team, provided they have the support of the majority of the team and can show ownership of the work submitted. The individual that submits the entry will be the organiser’s point of contact, and, if successful, will receive the award.

The main criteria to be taken into account in the assessment of entries are:

  • Novel design based on use of extrusion
  • Elegance or simplicity in re-designing a product by incorporating extrusions
  • Technical viability
  • Commercial viability
