Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) should not only prevent injury, it should also be visually appealing – this is something that has long since become standard, rather than just a passing trend. SKYLOTEC has responded to these demands. When developing new products, the manufacturer of fall protection equipment always focuses on solutions that combine function and design in an exceptional way. This was the case for the Ignite Series of harnesses, which won gold in the German Design Awards 2017 for its unique product design. The prize is one of Germany’s most prestigious design awards and is awarded by the German Design Council to high-quality products, which set new standards on the German and international design scene. More than 4000 products were nominated for the top international prize this year.
