Sonnhalter accepted the award in the Print-Collateral Brochure category for a brochure on Water Quality created for Viega LLC.

The Davey Awards honor the finest creative work from small firms, agencies and companies worldwide. The Davey Awards are named after King David who defeated the giant Goliath with a big idea and a little rock. The story resembles what small firms do each year by deriving strength from big ideas instead of big budgets.

Viega LLC launched its Water Quality Initiative to educate the engineering community and prepare them for the new ASHRAE 188P standards to combat Legionella and other waterborne pathogens. Sonnhalter worked with Viega to create the water quality campaign and the 8-page brochure to educate the industry and position Viega as the leader and subject matter expert.

“We’re excited to receive this award for a campaign that supported and educated such an important issue,” said Matt Sonnhalter, vision architect at Sonnhalter. “As an agency that works closely with professionals in the plumbing industry, it was a great experience to help Viega combat a problem that affects millions.”
