Awards rules
- Nominations are made online by industry participants. Categories may vary slightly from year to year.
- After nominations are closed, a shortlist for each category will be drawn up of the most nominated companies that have been validly nominated. Companies/products that have been nominated in the wrong category will be moved at the judges' discretion. If insufficient nominations are made in a category, the category will not be awarded in that year. Nominations are announced via the Global Cement LinkedIn group and via emails to Global Cement's database.
- All participants in the global cement and lime industry are eligible to vote.
- Once shortlisted, companies are allowed to encourage their customers to vote for them.
- Although companies may nominate themselves, companies are not permitted to vote for themselves - all such votes in the relevant category will be discarded.
- The judging panel reserves the right to include in the final voting round and/or judging round, any deserving companies, projects, technologies and products that have not been nominated.
- Companies indulging in low-down dirty tricks will be disqualified.
- The judges' decision is final.
- Entry is free.
