EkoKLINKIER Awarded with the Gold Medal BUDMA 2012
Thursday, 2012-01-26
This year’s BUDMA International Construction Fair was held between 24 and 27 January under the banner of “Construction of the Future — Release Your Creativity.” This was already the twenty-first edition of the trade fair with over 1,200 stands from 33 countries, attended by more than 50,000 visitors. During the opening of the trade fair, awards ceremony was held, during which prestigious awards were given, including Gold Medals BUDMA 2012. One of the Gold Medals went to EkoKLINKIER for Ekoline ceramic elevation tiles.
On the first day of the trade fair, the award together with a certificate was presented to the winners by Prof. Józef Jasiczak, D.Sc. Eng. — President of the Jury, Andrzej Byrt, Ph.D — President of the Management Board of MTP, and Janusz Żbik — Deputy Minister. The award was accepted by the representatives of LW Bogdanka S.A., i.e. Jarosław Wojewoda — Manager of the Promotion and Advertising Department, Dariusz Mikołajewski — Manager of the Sales Department of EkoKLINKIER and Piotr Orzechowski — Manager of the Technical and Recycling Department. This award is one of the most prestigious prizes on the Polish market of construction materials. This is a widely recognised indicator of a company’s value. It proves that our company’s goods and services are of high quality. This award has won us recognition among both the consumers and business partners, who will now have positive associations with EkoKLINKIER and identify it with a reliable brand, experience and prestige. The products awarded with the Gold Medal were exhibited on the Master Zone – a stand located in the very centre of the fair hall.
Not only did the company’s representatives receive the award, but they also had an occasion to talk to Janusz Żbik, the Under-Secretary of State at the Ministry of Transport, Construction and Maritime Economy. Other representatives of the Ministry as well as the Under-Secretary himself were expressing their interest in the products awarded.
This year, the organisers opted for a more modern interactive formula of the trade fair. For the first time, the project entitled Strada di Architettura Budma 2012 was incorporated into the fair’s programme. The project brings together remote topics addressed during the trade fair, i.e. Knowledge, Inspiration and Experience. Within the framework of each of these three topics, conferences and discussion panels were held, including the Efficient and Passive Construction Forum, which was devoted to energy-efficient buildings. Other innovative and significant topics which were also included in the fair’s programme were urban regeneration, thermal efficiency improvement, application of nanotechnology, high rise construction, as well as construction and occupancy of buildings.
The motto of the award-winning EkoKLINKIER brand, i.e. The arteko style — construction is an art, faithfully reflects the idea of the trade fair, which plays an active role in determining the direction for the development of future construction technologies in the industry. Our company's stand aroused a lot of interest and won great appreciation of the visitors and the experts in the construction industry. New business contacts established during the trade fair give a promise of a permanent cooperation which will strengthen our position on the market. Needless to say that the Ekoline tiles, awarded with the Gold Medal, enjoyed the greatest popularity among the visitors to our company’s stand. These ceramic tiles, which are made by way of cutting off the faces of bricks, are a durable and cost-effective solution for finishing house façades and perfectly imitate full-size façade bricks, without the need of a wide foundation. The fact that they are not very thick as compared to bricks makes it possible to bring the interior to a modern design, which has lately gained popularity. At the same time, EkoKLINKIER tiles retain their pastel and natural character.
