Nine ground-breaking new garden products were confirmed as the winners of the coveted Glee New Product Awards 2015, with Baksaver Barrows (above) winning the Glee Innovation Award.

Selected from hundreds of entries before Glee opened its doors, the winning products were chosen by an expert panel of judges representing independent and multiple retailers, the media and international suppliers.

Entries were submitted into nine key garden retail categories, comprising:

  • Best Garden Care (Accessories) Product

  • Best Garden Care (Chemicals, Fertilisers and Compost) Products
  • Best Pet and Wildlife Product
  • Best Leisure Product
  • Best Catering and Speciality Product
