CertainTeed Announces Finalists for 2022 North American Trophy Awards

 

The biannual celebration of excellence in drywall design and craftsmanship  returns – with 15 projects advancing to the highly anticipated competition in November

(MISSISSAUGA, ON)CertainTeed®, a leading North American manufacturer of building materials, has announced the finalists for its CertainTeed Gypsum Trophy Awards, which recognizes contractors’ work across North America – each at the forefront of drywall design, installation, sustainability and craftsmanship.

“While this marks only the sixth Trophy Award for CertainTeed, the pause we had to take during the pandemic made us realize how quickly this has become a luminary moment in our industry,” says Hanan Girgis, Director of Marketing for CertainTeed Canada. “Even in a season where labor shortages compound challenges from timelines, budgets, and outside-the-box design requests, this year’s finalists embody the incredible artisanship made possible with both our gypsum products, and other solutions from the full Saint-Gobain portfolio.”

The competition, which is traditionally hosted every two years, assesses drywall and finishing contractors in the U.S. and Canada for their design skills with gypsum, spanning various categories such as creativity, innovation and sustainability. Finalists are invited to attend the 6th CertainTeed Gypsum Trophy Awards event, which will be held November 10-12, 2022 at the Ritz Carlton in Half Moon Bay, California.

Of the finalists listed below, three U.S. companies and three Canadian companies will advance to the 13th Saint-Gobain Gypsum International Trophy Awards, competing among contractors and their most prestigious projects from around the world in Athens, Greece, in April 2023.
