In the years 2019 and 2020, the jury of the internationally renowned construction and architectural trade magazine "Build" from Great Britain selected us two times as the top partner for the building industry - selected from more than 500 submissions from more than 60 countries. With the "Build Award" as the best manufacturer of heating cables, we feel confirmed in our actions that quality and innovation must be the top priority - and reliability. Only then can architects and builders realize their visions and dreams. Competition Leader Jack Wainwright sums it up: "With these awards, we've honored companies in this sector who are the backbone of the industry, working day by day to create a better future for all, and I'm proud of all my winners and wishe good luck for the coming year "

In March 2019, the GREEN ACCU MAT^® was awarded the coveted "Green Product Award" - a prize that honors outstanding, climate-friendly and resource-saving alternatives to existing solutions. A top-class, international jury of scientists, architects and politicians selects from submissions from over 40 countries on all 6 continents! Another major goal of this initiative is the Green Product Network, which brings together established companies with students and start-ups to work together towards a better future. And of course Hemstedt is here! More information about our climate protection heating mats can be found here on the product page.

In 2018 we got two "Best-Of Industry Awards"! Hemstedt is thus continuing its series of top-class awards and is further expanding its pioneering position not only in the field of highly energy-efficient underfloor heating systems. New is the targeted, demand-regulated wine and fruit growing spring frost protection system HEM-SYSTEM^® Wine Frost Control, which was introduced to the market in autumn 2017 after successful field trials. The fact that it immediately wins the "Industry Award" confirms that we have developed an innovative, effective and forward-looking product - just like our environmentally and climate-friendly GREEN ACCU MAT^® underfloor storage heater, which now receives the award for the third time.

Together with mentor Ranga Yogeshwar, "TOP 100" honors every year the 100 most innovative companies of the German SMEs. TOP 100 is already more than 20 years the only benchmark for innovation management in Germany. That means, "TOP 100" awards no individual products, but there are all stages of the innovation process taken under the microscope. 

Professor Nikolaus Franke and his team from the Vienna University of Economics are responsible for the scientific management of the project. 

We are proud that we have received for the second time this prestigious award, as it confirms that we are on our thoughts and actions in the right direction - namely to offer our customers always pioneering innovations to be jointly always one step ahead! 

With our new underfloor heating mats GREEN ELECTRIC MAT^® and GREEN ACCU MAT^® we have not only created a high-quality product „Made in Germany“ that helps you to heat 100% climate-neutral, but also an outstanding innovative and future-oriented product. 

Proven by the "Industriepreis 2014, 2016 and 2018".

The decision in this competition, which is held regularly since 2006, is made by an independent jury of 30 professors from renowned German universities and research institutions as well as trade journalists and industry representatives. They judge about more than 5,000 submitted products every year. Decisive factors are product maturity and future orientation, but also effective benefits, increasing efficiency and practicality. The requirements of the jury members are clear:

"Innovation means to me that a product or a method distinguishes itself significantly and surprisingly from the known state-of-the-art."

( Prof. Dr. Thorsten M. Buzug, University of Luebeck, Germany )

"An innovative industry solution uses the latest technical and scientific potential, conserves resources, provides new functionality and absolute safety and optimal user-friendliness." 

( Prof. Dr. Rainer Laur, University of Bremen, Germany )

Thus Hemstedt reiterates out from the crowd and proves that good quality combined with trend-setting innovations are the ingredients for customer-oriented, successful products. And that was confirmed the same two years later again by the "Industriepreis 2018."
