MBI's Awards of Distinction

MBI's annual modular building awards, the Awards of Distinction, are presented annually, traditionally on the final evening of its World of Modular conference and trade show. Modular building awards are presented in a variety of categories, including several each for permanent modular construction projects and relocatable buildings. Excellence in innovation, "green" modular construction, and marketing are also recognized. Awards are also presented for Best in Show in each major category.

These Awards of Distinction represent the highest honors awarded in the modular construction industry. MBI member companies may self-nominate, but most winners are chosen by an independent panel of industry experts. Best of Show honors are awarded based on voting done by World of Modular attendees.

In addition to recognizing modular buildings at the ceremony, the Modular Building Institute also bestows individual honors to those who have gone above and beyond in their service to the modular construction industry. Awards are given for Outstanding Achievement and to new inductees of MBI's Hall of Fame.
