LIGNOLOC® System Honored in the Theatre Sector

The LIGNOLOC® wooden nailing system by BECK has been named “Sustainability Product of the Year” at this year's ABTT Theatre Show Awards in the United Kingdom. The award recognizes innovative products that make a significant contribution to sustainability within the theatre, live events, and film industries.
 
Recognition for Sustainable Innovation
 
The award is presented by the Association of British Theatre Technicians (ABTT), one of the leading professional organizations serving the live performance sector in the UK. The organization promotes technical excellence, safety, and sustainable standards across the theatre and entertainment industries. The annual ABTT Awards are widely regarded as an important benchmark for innovation and sustainable development within the sector.
 
This recognition highlights the potential of LIGNOLOC® to enable metal-free timber connections for stage construction, scenery production, and a wide range of other timber applications. Developed by BECK, the innovative wooden nail technology supports resource-efficient and circular construction approaches, contributing to more sustainable building practices.

Growing Recognition in the International Creative Industry

The award strengthens the presence of LIGNOLOC® within the international stage and screen industry and underlines the growing importance of sustainable solutions in creative environments. Following the award ceremony, additional media coverage, interviews, and industry features are planned to further explore the benefits of the technology and the opportunities offered by circular economy concepts. At the ABTT Theatre Show, LIGNOLOC® was presented by Reset Scenery, which accepted the award on behalf of the project and helped introduce the innovative wooden nailing technology to a broad audience of industry professionals. The award once again confirms BECK's innovative strength and demonstrates that LIGNOLOC® gains increasing relevance beyond traditional timber construction applications.
