KONE has won an award in the "Red Dot Award: Product Design 2015" for its KONE Turnstile 100 solution. The Red Dot award is bestowed to products that stand out due to their excellent design, quality and innovative power.
The next generation KONE Turnstile 100 sets a new standard for innovative visual design and functionality, while improving security, guidance and convenience in buildings. The awarded turnstile is KONE's response to the increasing need for smarter cities and buildings as it is designed to guide people effectively and smoothly from front entrance to desired destination. KONE Turnstile 100 features a range of intelligent guidance and security options that meet the requirements of modern-day structures such as office buildings and also airports, which have high demands with regard to access control and maintaining an unhindered flow of people. It is constructed from durable, high-quality steel and glass to match other award-winning KONE products.

The Red Dot Design Award dates back to 1955 and celebrates its 60th anniversary this year. With 4,928 innovative entries from 56 countries in 2015 the Red Dot Award: Product Design is the largest and most recognized product competition in the world. The rewarded KONE Turnstile 100 continues KONE's success in product design. KONE's products and solutions have been awarded the coveted Red Dot product design awards also in 2012 and 2014.

"We are truly honored to have received this award for KONE Turnstile 100," says Antti Ruutu, Head of KONE's Door Business. "The combination of functionality and style is important factor in KONE's product designs. We wanted to design a smart and stylish turnstile that enables people to intuitively be guided through a building's entrance and lobby area from the moment they enter the building."
