The Industrial Innovation Awards celebrate the most impactful innovations in industrial and manufacturing technology, tools, solutions, and equipment.

Formerly the NED Innovation Awards, the program has expanded to include both New Equipment Digest and Plant Services—bringing together two trusted industry brands to spotlight breakthrough products that deliver measurable results on the plant floor and across operations. The awards honor technologies that improve performance, efficiency, reliability, safety, and ROI, giving executives, engineers, and operations leaders a credible benchmark for identifying what's truly moving manufacturing forward.

The program is open to any product made by a manufacturer for a manufacturer—from OEM equipment and automation to MRO solutions and everything in between.

Elligible products are those that were released to the market between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2025.

Submissions are now open through May 27, 2026.
