Zebra' devices recognized for design

Zebra Technologies Corp. said that its TC20 mobile computer and TC25 rugged smartphone have been awarded the prestigious Red Dot Award for product design.

This marks the fourth consecutive year that Lincolnshire-based Zebra has received this honor.

"The Red Dot Award winners embody the principle that good design isn't merely defined by a product's appearance," said Peter Zec, founder and CEO of Red Dot. "They understand how to harmonize technical innovation, ergonomics and aesthetic aspects to find a balance of good design and innovation that really impresses our judges."

"Zebra is delighted to receive this Red Dot recognition of our TC2x product family," said Curt Croley, senior director, innovation and design at Zebra Technologies.

"The TC20 and TC25 product family is now the latest in a series of award-winning designs, which continue to highlight Zebra's commitment to creative, intuitive and effective form factors. Our TC2x product solution emerged from a deep investigative understanding of our enterprise customers' needs and continues Zebra's commitment to deliver unprecedented visibility and productivity via our devices and solutions."

The Red Dot Award was founded in 1955 and is considered one of the most esteemed awards for design excellence. It is the biggest design competition in the world, and this year, the jury received more than 6, 300 entries from 59 countries. The winning products will be showcased at a special exhibition held from July 10 through Aug. 5 at the Red Dot Design Museum in Essen, Germany.
