The 2016 ceremony was held at the Marriott Hotel in Leicester on March 1, celebrating suppliers across Saint-Gobain’s 50+ brands, including Weber, British Gypsum and Isover.
As well as being runner up for this year’s Account Management Award, Wastecycle picked up 2016’s Health & Safety Award and was named Supplier of the Year for the plasterboard-recycling service developed as part of their contract with British Gypsum.
