Los Alamitos, CA (Aug. 9, 2023) – Epson today announced multiple products received Red Dot Design Awards, including a coveted “Best of the Best” award, the highest distinction in the Red Dot: Product Design 2023 awards. Epson received Red Dot product design awards for four point of sale solutions, two large format professional printer models, one industrial robot, one home theater projector, and two Moverio® smart glasses models.
“Epson is well known for designing products that are efficient, compact and precise,” said Richard Miller, vice president, North America commercial marketing, Epson America Inc. “Receiving the Red Dot Design Awards across multiple products, one of the most prestigious awards in the design industry, is a testament to our team’s ongoing dedication to also design aesthetically pleasing, wonderfully functional and simply beautiful products.”
Best of the Best Award Winner
The SureLab D570 win marks the fourth time Epson has received a Best of the Best Red Dot award. The design of this compact, lightweight professional minilab photo printer provides installation flexibility in shops where space is limited. With a stackable design, businesses can scale and add more printers to keep up with customer demand, and front operation access allows for installation on narrow shelves and counters. Environmental benefits include ink bottles instead of ink cartridges, resulting in zero cartridge waste.
