Since 2014, the MP Corrosion Innovation of the Year Awards have provided a forum for association members and customers to showcase their corrosion mitigation technologies while receiving recognition for their innovative solutions. Winners are selected by a panel of industry experts spanning a wide range of subject matter expertise.

For 2023, the global corrosion control community submitted a near-record total of more than 50 nominations. Innovations can be related to coatings and linings, materials, design, equipment, testing, monitoring, integrity assessment, cathodic protection, chemical treatment, or anything else directly related to corrosion prevention and mitigation. Anyone worldwide can submit a nomination—including individuals, companies, organizations, and governments—and there is no fee to enter.

Nominations for the 2025 cycle of this biennial program will be accepted starting in June 2024. Stay tuned to the Awards web site for further details.
