Upcoming edition of ceramic tile and bathroom show poised for another round of Distributor Awards and to reveal winner of CDICV’s Best Stand Design and Stand Interior Competition.
In a first this year, the Distributor Awards ceremony will be a Gala event, set for 25th February at the Museo Príncipe Felipe in Valencia’s Ciutat de les Artes i les Ciències.
Valencia, 6th February 2025.- Cevisama will be bestowing recognitions on two different sets of professionals at the upcoming edition of the fair. The awards are particularly significant for both groups. Cevisama’s Distributor Awards seek to reward the professional development of distributors and wholesalers, whilst the prizes in the Best Stand Design and Stand Interior Competition, awarded by the Colegio de Diseñadores de Interior de la Comunitat Valenciana CDICV (Comunitat Valenciana College of Interior Designers), recognise Cevisama exhibitors’ efforts to create the best setting for showcasing their new products.
Distributor Awards at Ciutat de les Arts
With the Distributor Awards, Cevisama aims to continue to recognise the hugely important work these operators do for ceramic tile and bathroom equipment retailers and buying groups, both internationally and in Spain. The awards aim to recognise and support ceramic tile and bathroom industry distributors’ excellence in the field of sales management as well as their ability to adapt to changing markets and market requirements over the years.
The Awards are supported by Ivace + i Internacional and, in a new development for this year, the accolades will be delivered at a gala event on Tuesday 25th February at the Museo Príncipe Felipe in Valencia’s Ciutat de les Artes i les Ciències (City of Arts and Sciences).
Best stands at Cevisama
The Colegio de Diseñadores de Interior de la Comunitat Valenciana (CDICV), is partnering with Cevisama again this year as it stages the 2025 Best Stand Design and Stand Interior Competition. These awards, which recognise the effort Cevisama exhibitors invest in creating their exhibition spaces, assess a whole set of values including, most notably, ephemeral architecture and optimal short-term presentation of a product in a trade fair context.
These awards seek to highlight ingenuity, creativity and excellence in the design of exhibition spaces, acknowledging exhibitors’ and interior designers’ work through an assessment process that looks at several of its aspects, from the quality of the stand’s design to innovation in the use of materials and harmony between form and function. Every year the ceremony restates Cevisama’s and the CDICV’s commitment to promoting the ceramic tile sector’s growth and development both in Spain and in the international arena.
This award ceremony is also scheduled to take place on Tuesday 25th February, at 10.15 in the Hotel Cevisama lecture zone in Hall 3. Following the ceremony there will be a tribute to interior designer Antonio Salinas, one of the great names in Valencian interior design, whose glittering career has spanned Spain, Italy, Germany, France and Greece.
