The PLANT ENGINEERING "Product of the Year" Award is a well-recognized, well-respected honor that has been bestowed upon more than 700 products in the last 16 yr.

The ballot next to p 84 will guide you through the voting process. Write in the vote number for the product you think is the best in each of our 16 categories.
The product that receives the highest number of votes overall will be our Grand Award winner. The votes in each category will then be tallied to determine Gold, Silver, and Bronze winners.
