Each year, after our independent panel of judges selects the Showstoppers, we award them with a quick ceremony at our booth on the show floor. Each winner is encouraged to send representatives for each winning product, and those representatives receive trophies and take a photo with ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR Publisher Andrea Klee.
Here, find the pictures from the ceremony, and below, find a list of the winning companies and products. Look out for full coverage of the Showstoppers in our January issue in which we'll take our readers further into the specifics of each Showstopper.
