The Rainscreen Association in North America (RAiNA) has opened submissions for the 2025 RAiNA Awards: Design & Technical Excellence, recognizing outstanding projects that advance rainscreen technology across North America.
The awards honor leadership in design, sustainability, energy performance, and technical achievement within the rainscreen wall assembly industry. Eligible projects must demonstrate how rainscreen systems contribute to durable, resilient, and architecturally expressive enclosures. Submissions are open exclusively to RAiNA members and close on October 3, 2025.
Winning projects will be announced during the 2025 RAiNA Conference, which gathers architects, engineers, manufacturers, and enclosure specialists to discuss innovation in high-performance facade systems.
Established to spotlight the benefits of rainscreen assemblies—including improved thermal performance, moisture management, and facade design flexibility—the RAiNA Awards reflect the organization’s mission to promote science-based, performance-driven building enclosures throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
