LIMEX Received Red Dot Award: Product Design 2018
LIMEX received Red Dot Award: Product Design 2018. The Red Dot jury has made its decision: After all of the products submitted were tested and assessed individually in the course of an evaluation process spanning several days, LIMEX by TBM Co., Ltd, received the distinction "Red Dot."
TOKYO, May 23, 2018 (Newswire.com) - The production of TBM's new material LIMEX does not require large amounts of water and wood pulp, unlike regular printing paper. Limestone is the sole material, this minimizes production and commodity costs. In order to expand LIMEX across the globe, TBM has commercialized their real product in the form of business cards. These business cards are distributed directly, from person to person. In addition, the production of just one box of LIMEX business cards is able to save 10 liters of water. Each one of the LIMEX business cards visually displays the contribution that is being made towards the conservation of water.
Evaluation platform for a good design
The Red Dot Award: Product Design has roots dating back as far as 1955 and determines the best products created each year. In 2018, designers and manufacturers from 59 countries submitted more than 6,300 objects to the competition. True to the motto "In search of good design and innovation," a jury comprising roughly 40 members assessed the products individually based on the original. The strict judging criteria, which include a level of innovation, functionality, formal quality, ergonomics, and durability, provide a frame of reference which the jurors then complement with their own expertise.
