German Design Award
We are glad to announce the nomination of the LED-Floodlight “XLed” by Steinel for the federal design award “Designpreis”.
The Design Award is the official recognition of excellence in design offered by the Federal Republic of Germany. It is the central thrust in the campaign of the Federal German Ministry of Economics and Technology to promote good design. Companies cannot enter for the Design Award; instead, they are nominated by the Ministries and Senators for Trade & Industry of the German States or by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology. It is a precondition for this, however, that a product has already been awarded a national or international prize. No other Design Award sets its entrants such a strict criterion. Because of this the Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany is called the “prize of prizes” by many opinion leaders in the world of design.
