Hobart Receives German Design Award 2015

The German Design Council has awarded the Offenburg-based manufacturer the German Design Award 2015. Thus, Hobart is the first warewashing manufacturer to receive this major German design award, which will be presented in Frankfurt next February.

The German Design Award 2015 in the category “Industry, Materials and Health Care” goes to Hobart for the new warewash system Premax FTPi. The high-caliber committee of renowned experts from economy, university teaching, science, and design industry judged the innovative design of the Premax FTPi as groundbreaking in the German and international design landscape. They based their judgment on criteria such as functionality, safety and ease of operation, ecological and technical quality, visual appearance, and overall concept.

Hobart Managing Director Axel Beck is happy about the prize: “Winning the German Design Award is a great honor for Hobart and makes us very proud. The receipt of the major design award of its kind in Germany elevates the Hobart design to the highest level and makes us the first wash ware producer ever to win it.”

With the German Design Award 2015, the Premax FTPi receives its third design price. This year, Hobart’s new warewash system already won the IF Design Award by International Forum Design and the RedDot Design Award.

Credit for the price-winning appearance of the Premax FTPi warewash system goes to Ottenwälder & Ottenwälder from Schwäbisch-Gmünd. The renowned company for industrial design has received numerous other national and international design awards for different industries.
