German Design Award 2021 for our all-electric sweepers

We proudly announce that our new all-electric sweepers CityCat V20e and CityCat VS20e have won «Special Mention» in the German Design Awards 2021!

The design of the electrically-powered street-sweeping vehicles has convinced the jury in the category of «Excellent Product Design» with its formally and functionally reflection of the claim to sustainability, advanced technology, functionality and user-friendliness.

The German Design Awards are the international premier prize of the German Design Council. Their goal is to discover, showcase and recognise unique design trends. As such, high-calibre submissions from the fields of product and communication design – all of which play a pioneering role within the international design landscape in their own way – are honoured every year. The German Design Awards, which were initiated in 2012, are amongst the world’s most renowned design awards and enjoy a prestigious reputation that extends well beyond specialist circles.

In order to appropriately reflect the diversity of our design culture, the German Design Awards are split into the categories of «Excellent Product Design», «Excellent Communications Design» and «Excellent Architecture». Within these award categories various distinctions are presented. The «Special Mention» distinction pays tribute to consistent design conception and implementation.
