The new, patented magnetic shower head holder features simplified handling with universal design in mind. Thanks to its magnetic function, the height can be easily adjusted. It has an intuitive one-hand operation, a continuously rotatable cone holder, and dispenses with the conventional push buttons and rotary knobs. The durable magnetic shower holder can therefore be used comfortably without effort – even by those with motor impairments. It is available in stainless steel and chrome as well as powder-coated in white, black, and grey.

 

The competition that makes innovation visible

The German Innovation Award is awarded by the German Design Council. It recognises cross-sector products, solutions, and services that break new ground and offer solutions that provide added value to users and highlight the environment. Innovations are possible in all areas. whether industry giants or start-ups, all companies are given the same opportunities. The achievements thus become visible to a broad audience.

The jury of the German Innovation Awards is made up of experts from industry and science. The submissions are evaluated based on three criteria: level of innovation, user benefits, and economic efficiency. The innovation strategy should take into account aspects such as social, ecological, and economic sustainability and the efficient use of energy and resources.
