IF DESIGN AWARD 2016
TROTEC WINS AWARD
Trotec Laser GmbH is pleased to receive one of the most prestigious international
industrial design awards. The company’s large-format laser cutter SP3000 was recently
awarded the iF Design Award 2016 in the category “Product” at the BMW Welt
in Munich. The SP3000 is the largest laser cutter within a series of laser cutting machines
for the industrial processing of acrylic, wood or textiles. Through the independent
and open design of the V-shaped body, the machining area of 2.2 by 3.2 metres is
easily accessible on all four sides. “Customer benefits are a top priority in our product
development. A well-conceived design makes a decisive contribution: Faster operation
or increased ergonomics creates more efficient workflows and thus profitability for our
customers. We are very pleased that we have now won the iF Award,” said Trotec managing
director Dr. Andreas Penz. iF International Forum Design GmbH is based in Hanover
and has distinguished designers with the iF Design Award since 1954. In 2016
there were more submissions than ever before: The top-class jury received almost 5,300
applications from more than 50 countries. www.troteclaser.com. <

REMADAYS WARSAW
INSPIRON WINS TWO MEDALS
Inspiron, the Bremen-based supplier and importer of promotional products, won two
competition prizes during the printing and promotional products trade show Rema-
Days Warsaw. The PromotionTops Catalogue 2016 was awarded gold as “Catalogue of
the Year” for the third time in a row. The publication convinced through its content and
design. Under the motto “Shop the Tops”, the catalogue invites readers to a shopping
spree through the diverse and colourful range on 532 pages. The “Flavoured” thermo
mug from Inspirion took out third place of the “Gifts of the Year 2016” award in the category
TopDesign. The double-walled thermo mug scored through optics, quality and
durability. As in previous years, the award-winners were nominated by the international
trade show audience. “The awards are the greatest recognition we can receive because
we were selected by the trade show visitors,” said a delighted Martin Jung, marketing
manager at Inspirion. www.inspirion.eu <
