The Red Dot Jury has made its decision: The Dometic CFX3 powered cooler/freezer box emerged victorious from the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2020 and won a Red Dot for its good design quality. Once again, Dometic is one of the winners in the world's most renowned design competition.

Dometic's new generation portable fridge/freezer Dometic CFX3 series are designed for active lifestyles. Its durable, lightweight fender frames protect the cooler in tough environments while strong, spring-loaded aluminum handles make it easy to carry.

Dometic's market leading VMSO3 variable-speed compressor cooling technology with optimized software ensures superb energy efficiency and superior cooling performance. Temperatures are easily adjusted using the TFT display screen or the Dometic app on your phone or tablet.

Dr. Anton Lundqvist, CTO, Dometic Group says: "We listen to what the consumer really wants and developed the Dometic CFX3. Active people on adventures still want fresh and healthy food without having to limit the time they spend off the grid. It is great to see our Dometic CFX3's smart and beautiful design backed by our industry-leading technology has won the Red Dot."

Red Dot CEO Professor Dr. Peter Zec on the laureates: "The winners of the Red Dot Award have proved that they have created excellent products worthy of winning an award. The products won over the jury not only through their aesthetic, but also thanks to their incomparable functionality. With their designs, the award winners are setting new standards in their industry. I wish to congratulate them most sincerely on their success," said Professor Dr. Peter Zec, founder and CEO of Red Dot.

Detailed evaluation of the products entered

The Red Dot Award: Product Design offers designers and manufacturers from all over the world a platform for assessing their products. In 2020, designers and companies from 60 countries entered more than 6,500 products in the competition.

The international jury comprises experienced experts from different disciplines and has been convening for around 65 years in order to select the year's best designs. The adjudication process lasts several days and is based on two essential criteria: The jurors test all of the entries in order to assess not just the aesthetic but also the materials selected, the level of craftsmanship, the surface structure, ergonomics and functionality.

After intensive discussions, they make a decision on the design quality of the products. True to the motto "In search of good design and innovation", only the best designs receive an award.

Dometic CFX3 in exhibitions, online and in the yearbook

On 22 June 2020, Dometic CFX3 will be added to the exhibition "Design on Stage" in the Red Dot Design Museum Essen, where all of the award-winning products will be on show. The museum will thus be a hot spot for best-in-class industrial design. From that date, the winning product from Dometic will also be presented in the online exhibition on the Red Dot website. The Red Dot Design Yearbook 2020/2021 comes out in July 2020.
