Epson has been named Red Dot: Design Team of the Year 2026, acknowledging the company’s design approach across its product portfolio. The award recognises Epson’s design work, highlighting how the company combines product performance, functionality and design.
The award was marked at the Red Dot Award ceremony in Essen, Germany, on 7 July 2026, followed by an exhibition at the Red Dot Design Museum that will run until 16 August and feature a selection of Epson products, including Red Dot award-winning designs. The exhibition will give visitors and industry professionals a closer look at products from Epson’s printing and projection businesses, alongside Orient Watches, and explore how design shapes the interaction between people and technology.
Professor Dr Peter Zec, Red Dot Founder and CEO, said:
“Epson has created a remarkably broad portfolio and translates technology innovation with great assurance into accessible, human-centred solutions. The design approach is defined by a strong sense of harmony – between form and function and between technological precision and user experience. Driven by a strategically embedded design culture, this results in internationally successful products with a clear identity. The title ‘Red Dot: Design Team of the Year 2026’ recognises this outstanding achievement.”
Maria Eagling, Chief Marketing Officer, Epson Europe, has said:
“Red Dot Design Team of the Year is one of the most respected recognitions in global design. For Epson, it reflects years of investment in understanding how people use technology and applying those insights across our products, services and customer experiences. This award recognises not a single product, but the collective contribution of designers across Epson’s global Business.”
The Red Dot Design Museum in Essen is a major venue for contemporary product design and a regular meeting point for design and innovation professionals. Epson’s exhibition will be open to visitors from 7 July to 16 August 2026.
