This week, the HANNOVER MESSE (Germany) is the showplace for industrial technologies, materials and product ideas - the place to be if you want to refresh your industrial know-how or consider business with Turkey (this year's partner country). iF Design has its headquarters at these trade fair grounds and creates a special display for new or unknown developments in the world of materials and design, titled Material Trends. This year's show is featuring news by Material Sense, Material Connexion and the iF Material Award winners.
Yesterday, Ralph Wiegmann (Managing Director) handed out all iF Material Awards. The jury selected a total of 18 prize winners for four categories (materials, products, ideas and processes). Six lucky ones received an additional iF Gold Award - or, 'design oscar' - for their material innovation efforts. Also, students are encouraged to share their concept thinking - this year, five students have been rewarded with the iF concept award, including a 2,000 Eur pocket money each (sponsored by BASF).
See the press release for all award winners and stay tuned for more material alerts.
