Flooring Innovation Awards

Stopgap 1400 has been named as a winner in the flooring installation products category at the Flooring Innovation Awards 2025.

Organised by The Stocklists magazine, the annual awards celebrate the flooring industry’s newest and most innovative and exciting products and services.

Launched last year, Stopgap 1400 is a two-component smoothing compound, with superior self-smoothing properties. It is walk-on hard from just 90 minutes after application and ready to receive floorcoverings from 12 hours.

A panel of judges made up of independent flooring industry leaders and commentators will now select a winner from each category to win a Flooring Innovation Gold Award based on detailed research of submissions, with the recipients announced in April.
