NEW YORK -- The Editors' Choice Awards competition, held each year at the International Hotel/Motel & Restaurant Show, will add an environmentally friendly component to each of the five award categories--decor, essentials, luxury, restaurant and technology.

As a result, 10 Editors' Choice awards will be presented at this year's IH/M&RS recognizing the most innovative new products and environmentally sound products for the hospitality industry.

In addition, the Kenneth F. Hine "Best of Show" award will be presented for the overall best new product introduced. Editors from hospitality trade publications will judge submissions based on innovative product design, how a product answers a particular industry need, creative use of material or construction, and development or use of a new technology. Representatives from the Green Restaurant Association and Green Lodging News will join the panel of judges.

The deadline to submit a product is Oct. 26. The competition will take place at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York on Nov. 10-13.
