JUICE CHARGER 2 honoured with the international GOOD DESIGN Award
Juice Technology AG has been recognised for its JUICE CHARGER 2 with the GOOD DESIGN Award presented by the Chicago Athenaeum
Juice Technology AG, producer of electric charging stations and software and the market leader in mobile charging stations for electric cars, has been honoured for its JUICE CHARGER 2 with the GOOD DESIGN Award by the Chicago Athenaeum museum of architecture and design in the “Transportation” category.
Founded in Chicago in 1950 by the world renowned architects and designers Eero Saarinen and Charles and Ray Eames, The GOOD DESIGN Awards program remains today one of the oldest and most prestigious awards programs for excellence in design worldwide. The Chicago Athenaeum received a record number applications for the 2020 competition, with over 3,000 designers and companies from more than 50 countries submitting products and graphics. In this 70th year of the GOOD DESIGN Awards, a distinguished jury selected the best product designs and graphics from Europe, Asia, Australia and the United States. The JUICE CHARGER 2 made by Juice Technology AG took the prize in an international field of competitors in the “Transportation” category.
“We engineer our products first and foremost for intuitive ease of safe and reliable operation, clothed in a timeless, artistically appealing design. Exposed to the widest imaginable range of diverse environmental conditions, our charging stations must be tough and resilient, withstanding everything to maintain full functionality, yet also look good,” explains Christoph Erni, founder and CEO of Juice Technology AG. “Our JUICE BOOSTER 2 has already brought home the 2020 German Design Award. So we’re all the more delighted that our JUICE CHARGER 2 has now likewise been honoured with this prestigious design award at international level.”
The GOOD DESIGN Awards recognise products and graphics that offer outstanding quality, function and artistry above and beyond those of conventional consumer goods and graphics. The winning submissions are selected by a jury of renowned design experts and leading specialists drawn from the industry and design media. Assessments are based on the criteria of innovative design, new technologies, form, materials, engineering, conceptual design, function, utility and energy efficiency as well as environmental compatibility.
