ABC engines
SILVER AWARD
The Henry van de Velde jury on the Anglo Belgian Corporation EVOLVE 4EL23: “The modular integration of various less polluting fuels makes this design a sustainable response to the transition currently facing shipping.”
With the unique EVOLVE engines ABC wants to help its business partners on their way to zero-emission. The first engine in the range is a compact but very powerful medium-speed 4-cylinder engine: the EVOLVE 4EL23.
XEOS PET-CT imager
GOLD AWARD
The Henry van de Velde jury on XEOS AURA 10: “This medical device shows how design can bring simplicity and efficiency to a complex and demanding work environment.”
In surgical oncology, such as breast conserving surgery, rapid assessment of the excised specimen is of utmost importance. You want to be confident that your surgery reached its goal of resecting the target lesion, so that your patients recovery can be promoted.
BEBAT
SILVER AWARD
Bebat is innovating with a modified collection system for batteries with new collection units and recipients.
The entire flow, starting from the consumer’s home to the sorted fraction, has been profoundly reformed. This has resulted in an ecosystem of user-friendly and safe recipients that will be rolled out in the course of 2021, over all locations.
AEROSLEEP OYO
BRONZE AWARD
The OYO Smart Baby Monitor is a smart monitor that helps you watch over your little one.
The monitor tracks, among other things, the respiratory rate, the temperature and body position of the child. Subsequently, all the data is displayed in the OYO app in real time. OYO’s friendly design is a distraction from the serious and threatening nature of the situations this monitor is intended to detect.
JABBLA VIBE
Literally give people with speech disorders their voice back. That is the promise that comes with Jabbla’s devices. The Vibe is the new showpiece for active users. An extremely wearable communication tool. Why is that? It is practical in size and very lightweight. Extra asset: integrated screens at the back and the front. Unique within this product category!
CANA
Cana is a watering can and rain shower at the same time. How is this possible? Two different openings make it multifunctional. One opening turns it into a watering can. This is also where you top up the contents. The other side acts as a rain shower. Hours of water fun guaranteed, both in the garden and in the bath. Bonus: children train their motor skills thanks to the ergonomic look and feel.
GDT
This baby seat helps the user make passport photos of babies and toddlers quickly and efficiently. Distinguishing characteristics:
- The Studio ID baby seat is stable and is composed of three-dimensionally moulded foam and felt.
- A soft-surface coating provides additional comfort.
- The headrest has a special recess that keeps the baby’s head directed towards the camera.
- The height-adjustable headrest doubles as a photographic background.
Praise from the jury:

KABUTO XTEND®
Pars Pro Toto makes dreams come true. This is especially true of the Xtend® design: born from a dream to design an ergonomic, practical, elegant and digital upright suitcase. This product instantly became the new trend in connected luggage.
Every detail is designed to make the traveller’s life easier. No wonder that Kabuto has won so many prizes since its foundation.
TATTOU PIO
The soft, spherical design of the PIO baby monitor inspires confidence. Parents and children are always connected via smartphone or tablet. Connection can be established via Wi-Fi but also via radiation-free ethernet. The accompanying app makes the baby monitor very user-friendly. Parents can see and hear their children, even from a distance, thanks to the integrated hardware components such as a camera, microphone and loudspeaker. They can talk to their little ones or play lullabies. Your baby hasn’t drifted off yet? The built-in camera projector projects soothing images on the nursery walls or ceiling.
Praise from the jury:
“PIO offers a variety of functions but is nevertheless easy to operate. It is designed to seamlessly fit into the nursery environment.”
QUUT, ALTO
How to build a layered sand or snow construction that doesn’t crumble away in minutes? Use the three stackable components by ALTO. Simply fill, press and form. Let the magic happen! Cleanup and transport is child’s play thanks to the simple click-and-stack design.
Praise from the jury:
“Alto helps children build sandcastles in a simple and playful manner. The compact toy is very user-friendly and easy to store and transport.”
QUUT, SCOPPI
Scooping sand or snow has never been easier. Thanks to the ergonomic footrest your child can dig deep, even on bare feet. With the detachable sand sifter your child can build forts, castles and igloos in the blink of an eye. In short, Scoppi is not just visually attractive, super strong and ingenious; above all else it is fun.
Praise from the jury:
“Scoppi boasts an attractive design children will love and is not just a practical playing tool, it is also lots of fun.”
SAMSONITE, LITESPHERE
The lightest softside luggage ever. That is what Samsonite’s Litesphere series has to offer. Lightweight yet hard-wearing thanks to the guard plates in certain sections of the suitcase. What other characteristics make this collection so special?
- Butterfly cross straps for wrinkle-free packing
- Light and whisper-quiet rubber wheels
- Ergonomic handles
- TSA-approved lock
Praise from the jury:
“This elegant collection succeeds in meeting the requirements for durable suitcases, as well as the need for a very low empty weight.”
