Wienerberger UK nominated for digital innovation awards

Wienerberger UK, one of the UK’s leading providers of wall, roof and landscaping solutions, has been shortlisted in two prestigious 2012 awards ceremonies. Both nominations recognise the company’s ‘Brick Selector’ app launched earlier this year.

In addition to receiving a nomination for the Effective Mobile Marketing Awards in the Most Effective Mobile Application – B2B category, Wienerberger UK has also been nominated in the Best Mobile Campaign category of the Construction Marketing Awards.

The Brick Selector App allows architects, housebuilders, merchants and self-builders to search Wienerberger UK’s comprehensive brick range at the click of a button. Specifiers can select bricks (and order samples) according to style, texture, pattern, size, shade and colour.

Annette Forster, Director of Marketing at Wienerberger UK, commented: “This is good news. We’ve been very busy recently making sure that the company is at the forefront of digital technologies and innovations within the industry, so nominations such as these are a barometer of our progress. 

“This is another example of the strategic reorientation of the company with a focus on being modern, future-oriented, technical leader, and providing bringing solutions to our customers and being a technological leader.

“The app has been a great success with our customers, and we already have plans underway to improve and enhance the app’s capability in the future. We’re looking forward to both ceremonies – with our fingers crossed of course.”

Both awards ceremonies will take place in London later in the year, with the Effective Mobile Marketing Awards on November 29, and the Construction Marketing Awards on December 6.
