The ReinraumAkademie will once again be holding its Cleanroom Award at Cleanzone, the international trade fair and conference for cleanroom technology, which is taking place this year for the third time in Frankfurt, Germany from 21–22 October.
The competition is open to companies or individuals with innovations that go beyond developments of existing products or services and aims to promote innovation and ideas in the development of cleanroom technology. The search is on for pioneering progress in the cleanroom industry, taking note of renewal, sustainability and efficiency.
An international jury will select the five best entries at Cleanzone and visitors to the show will then vote for the winner.
'The fact that the Cleanroom Award 2014 will once again be given at Cleanzone is a gain for both events,' said Ruth Lorenz, Head of Department for New Events at Messe Frankfurt.
'The specialist visitors of Cleanzone can find out about the outstanding technological innovations of the premiered projects and even choose their favourites. For the winners of the award this gathering for cleanroom technology presents an ideal opportunity to present their concepts to an international expert audience.'

Any innovation that drives the cleanroom industry forward can be submitted, such as surfaces that no longer become dirty, gloves in which one no longer sweats, or perhaps even an innovative project that has been implemented – there are no limits to the ideas.
Both companies and individuals have until 15 August to enter the Cleanroom Award 2014. The winner will receive a prize of €3,000, but the ReinraumAkademie says the real prize for the finalists is the attention of the specialist audience and a wider public during Cleanzone, as well as publication in trade magazines.
Last year's winner, the Blautouch interactive workbench for laboratories and cleanrooms developed and patented by Portuguese company Laborial, says it benefited from this exposure.
'The Cleanroom Award was identified and strategically defined as an imperative for the recognition and the market success of that innovative solution,' said Tânia Fernandes, Director of Marketing at Laborial.
