Three finalists of the Baby Products Association’s Concept & Innovation Awards have been announced.
Following a ‘Dragon’s Den’ style presentation to a team of industry experts, these finalists will be invited to present their product ideas at Harrogate International Nursery Fair from 15 to 17 October, 2023, where the winner will be revealed.
Julie Milne of the BPA, commented: “Every year, the judges are pleasantly surprised by the hard work and dedication of the individuals who enter these awards.
“The product ideas are generally garnered by observation of a situation of challenge faced by parents of babies and young children and the motivation to come up with a solution. This year all three finalists impressed the judges and we are certain that their entries will gain significant interest from the industry.”
Finalists include:
Cosy n Safe – Excalibur i-Size car seat – the seat is unusually lightweight and has a unique extended harness system to 125cm; plus five position reclines approved for all stages.
Cheeky Rascals – Brezza Bottle Washer Pro – the bottle washer automatically washes, sterilises and dries bottles and pump parts, killing 99.9% of germs.
Designability – Accessible pushchair – the pushchair is suitable for manual wheelchair users, developed with mass manufacture in mind. The pushchair can be used by a disabled parent or carer and those who are non-disabled.
This year, the Concept & Innovation Awards are sponsored by law firm, Brabners, whose intellectual property team is made up of experienced lawyers, dual qualified practitioners and specialist trademark attorneys.
Sarah Ludlam of Brabners will be attending the show, providing free information and advice to visitors and will present the award winner with a prize of £1000 of free legal advice.
