The company said that its document scanners and professional photo printers had also been recognised in the Red Dot of the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2021.
Seiko Epson Corporation announced that its EcoTank printers had in the Red Dot 2021 design awards won the prestigious Red Dot: Best of the Best of the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2021, which was only awarded to a small fraction of approximately 7,800 entries.
This year marks the fifth successive year that Epson products have won in the product design category, and the third in which its printers had received the Red Dot: Best of the Best.
Created in 1955 in Germany, the Red Dot Design Award is organised by the Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen design centre and is recognised around the world as one of the most prestigious awards in design. A jury of experts evaluates products announced during the past two years and selects the best designs based on nine criteria, including degree of innovation, functionality, ergonomics, ecological compatibility, and durability. This year’s winners were selected from entries from around the world.
Award-winning Epson products were the EcoTank ET series (ET-16650/ ET-16600 /ET-5850 /ET-5800 /ET-15000), document scanners: WorkForce DS-32000/ DS-30000 and its SureColor SC-P900/ SC-P906/ SC-P700/ SC-P706/ SC-PX1VL/ SC-PX1V devices.
