ORLANDO, Fla., April 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA) proudly announced the 2019 Innovation Awards winners today in Orlando, FL. during The JPMA Show: Built for Baby. Ten category award recipients and one Best in Show winner — the overall highest score across all categories — were selected. More than 23,000 parents nationwide also voted on their must-have product for the JPMA Parent's Pick Award.

The annual JPMA Show is the only combined conference, trade and consumer show that brings the entire baby and children's products industry together, including manufacturers, buyers, distributors, service providers and media, all under one roof, and invites parents in on the experience too. 

"The 2019 Innovation Awards highlight some important emerging trends in the marketplace. This year we saw a significant rise in products that focus on helping mom care for herself, in addition to caring for her baby. This is exciting because it means companies are expanding into new product categories in addition to their core business. JPMA also introduced two new award categories this year: "Best Products Under $50" and "Fashion and Design." Our panel of judges included some of the industry's most notable experts, making this year's awards an especially high honor," said JPMA Executive Director Kelly Mariotti.
