The Glassex Conservatory Design Competition, sponsored by Pilkington Activ, is a recognized platform to demonstrate the best of the UK glass and glazing industry and to reward excellence. Entries came from British companies with installations from as far a field as Australia.
With between 200,000 to 250,000 conservatories installed in the UK alone every year, to feature in the awards an entry had to be exceptional in all respects.
P & P Glass we’re therefore delighted to win awards in the following two categories: Small Conventional – Bronze Award, Large Conventional – Silver Award
