More than 400 international awards
Design quality is part of the award-winning DNA of the mixer and shower manufacturer from Schiltach. That is great news for you too, since the awards, which are conferred by independent judging panels, highlight the company's high quality standards. They are a reliable guide when it comes to selecting outstanding products which are impressive in terms of both their technology and their aesthetics. For example, the mixer and shower manufacturer from the Black Forest has won the “Red dot – Best of the Best Design Award” several times, as well as the “iF Gold Product Design Award” and, three years in a row, the “Designpreis der Bundesrepublik Deutschland” – Germany's most prestigious official design award, regarded as “the award of all awards”.
Hansgrohe is iF design leader in the sector
The “iF awards” from International Forum Design (iF) are among the most important indicators of product and design quality. Hansgrohe Group is regularly among the winners of iF competitions. Since 2008 the independent institution has also produced a ranking table, indicating companies' level of success in the design competition for the "iF award": Hansgrohe Group currently ranks 6th out of around 2,000 companies, beating top brands such as Apple, Daimler, Volkswagen or Adidas and number one in the sanitation sector.
