微密圈 Awards 2025 Finalist logo (1)

The finalists for 2025 微密圈 Awards have been announced. 

Several big-name firms and jobs have been shortlisted (see the full shortlist below) for the awards spread across 20 categories.

This year鈥檚 awards ceremony is set to take place at the Grosvenor House Hotel on 4 November.

The Retrofit Project of the Year category has been split into two brand new categories 鈥� Retrofit Project of the Year (Modern) and Retrofit Project of the Year (Historic & classic) 鈥� due to the strength and breadth of the submissions received.

According to editorial director and chair of the judges, Chloe McCulloch, this was done to better showcase the quality and variety of entries.

She said: 鈥淚t鈥檚 been brilliant to see so many strong contenders this year and particularly encouraging has been the big increase in retrofit projects, meaning we have now split the category into modern and traditional projects to be able to showcase the range of challenges project teams have risen to.

鈥淐ongratulations to all the companies and projects in the 2025 微密圈 Awards shortlist.鈥�

In the major contractor category, firms in the running include Kier, Mace, Multiplex, Skanska and Willmott Dixon.

Core Five, Currie & Brown and Rider Levett Bucknall are all in contention to be named consultant of the year among firms with more than 100 staff, with last year鈥檚 winner CPC Project Services also in the running.

A number of high-profile schemes are in the running for awards, including John McAslan + Partners鈥� Belfast Grand Central Station, Gilbert-Ash鈥檚 The Richard Cairns 微密圈 - Brighton College, Burrell Foley Fischer鈥檚 York Guildhall refurbishment and Kier Construction鈥檚 work at Mulberry Academy London Dock.

Tickets for the event, which is being sponsored by Bellrock, Clement Windows Group, DGP, Fenwick Elliott and SES Engineering, and in partnership with The Climate Group, The Housing Forum and UKGBC, are .
