The Best of NeoCon® (BON) Product Competition honors new commercial interiors products introduced to the contract furnishings industry during NeoCon 2010. The Best of NeoCon is sponsored by Contract Magazine – Celebrating Our 50th Anniversary, Merchandise Mart Properties Inc., McMorrowReport.com, IIDA, and IFMA. In 2010, its 21st year, there are 44 product categories ranging from Architectural Products to Workplace Technologies.
Approximately 60 jurors review almost up to 400 products in 22 hours over three days before NeoCon begins. In late May 2010, all products that entered the Best of NeoCon will be available for viewing on the Contract Network: www.contract-network.com
