Green Future Club

Under the claim ‘Let’s design the future’, the Green Future Club aims to contribute to a future where all products are sustainable. The association sees its mission as bringing together a diverse group of pioneers, thinkers, doers and visionaries to promote the sustainable development of materials, products and services. With the Green Product Award and Green Concept Award, the club has been making ‘best practice’ examples accessible to a broad public on an international level since 2013 – for more visibility of products, services and concepts that are to inspire consumers and industry globally. The Green Future Club is a global network that is constantly expanding – through new members and multiplicators, growing online and face-to-face events, and multi-faceted action.

Since 2013, the Green Product Award has been honouring products and services already launched on the market that stand out in the areas of sustainability, innovation and design – the award is aimed at ‘sustainable market changers’ from start-ups to established companies. Concepts for green products or services not yet on the market, can be submitted to the Green Concept Award​. The submission deadline for both Awards is November 1^st, 2021.

Enjoy benefits throughout the year by receiving comprehensive service packages containing award seals, digital exposure on our social media channels and media partners sites, a feature in our annual Green Trend Book, a point-based feedback, an award certificate and networking opportunities with the Green Future Club members.

The award is presented in twelve categories: Architecture & Tiny Houses, Building Components, New Materials, Consumer Goods, Fashion, Handicraft, Interior & Lifestyle, Kids, Kitchen, Mobility, Sport and Workspace are the areas in which products and services can be presented and will be judged. An award will be given to the entries that make a special contribution to a sustainable lifestyle.

The winners will be selected in a three-stage award process: After a ‘Pre-Selection’, the Nominees for the Green Product Award 2022 will be announced in mid-December 2021. In addition to the expert jury, the Audience Award will be determined by a public voting until end of January.
