Fluxwerx Wins Again! Two More Red Dot Product Design 2017 Awards

Fluxwerx Wins Again! Two More Red Dot Product Design 2017 Awards

April 12, 2017

Fluxwerx, a Lumenpulse Group brand and a world leader of high-performance LED luminaires, has won two more Red Dot Product Design 2017 awards for its suspended LED luminaire Fold and recessed LED luminaire Inbox.

Tested and assessed by the international Red Dot jury of 40 independent designers, both luminaires were awarded the sought-after prize for highest design quality in the Lighting category. In total, the competition received more than 5,500 entries from 54 countries.

Combining minimalist design and architectural-grade materials with superior optical and energy performance, Fold and Inbox deliver precise batwing distributions, exceptional functionality and energy efficiency. Designed for applications in commercial, institutional, retail and healthcare environments, the winning luminaires feature proprietary anidolic optical structures with linear light extraction elements. Precision engineered, high transmittance, clear acrylic lenses mix and precisely distribute light, while also eliminating any visible images of the LED point source.

This is the third Red Dot award for Fluxwerx in the last 24 months, having also won a Red Dot award last year for its LED luminaire Profile.

“We are honoured that more Fluxwerx products have been recognized by this internationally coveted seal of quality,” says Tim Berman, president of Fluxwerx. “Having two more of our products selected as winners of Red Dot Product Design Award again this year is great validation of our consistent dedication and effort to push the boundaries of LED technology and differentiated world-class leading product design.”

“The Red Dot winners are pursuing the right design strategy,” notes Professor Dr. Peter Zec, founder and CEO of the Red Dot Award. “They have recognised that good design and economic success go hand in hand. The award by the critical Red Dot jury documents their high design quality and is indicative of their successful design policy.”

The Red Dot Award was created in 1955 by Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen. Over the years, it has become one of the most respected design competitions in the world, with the “Red Dot” a revered international seal of outstanding design quality.

The independent expert panel assesses each entry strictly and fairly, live and on site, according to a specific set of criteria including degree of innovation, formal quality, functionality and ecological compatibility. The competition comprises three award categories: Product Design, Communication Design, and Design Concept.
