German Design Award 2020 för IKA

/// IKAs ergonomiska pipetter har fått pris

IKAs nya pipetter IKA PETTE fix and vario, som finns i 18 olika modeller, har vunnit det internationella designpriset German Design Award för ”outstanding design quality” i kategorin Utmärkt produktdesign - Industri. Den ergonomiska designen är inte bara estetiskt tilltalande, den är också idealisk för frekvent pipettering. Priset kommer att delas ut den 7 februari 2020.

PETTE from IKA was presented for the first time at the Achema 2018 exhibition and has been impressing its users ever since. In a single unit, the pipette combines everything the laboratory staff needs for reliable dosing in frequent use. Three exchangeable ergonomic grips are provided for the PETTE, since every hand is different. They ensure that the extremely light PETTE always rests comfortably in the hand, even during frequent use. The particular characteristics of the design include the large mechanical volume display. It is easy to read, even whilst pipetting. The IKA PETTE has now been honored for its outstanding design quality in the category “Excellent Product Design - Industry”, resulting from its lack of compromise in the design, which is oriented to the needs of the user.

Apart from the design, PETTE can, of course, do everything that is required for the most varied of laboratory pipetting tasks in the laboratory: It is fully autoclavable and can be easily sterilized. This guarantees fault-free, precise and safe pipetting. In addition, all models are designed to be impact-resistant, UV resistant and resistant to chemicals. Calibration and maintenance is user-friendly and can be carried out in-house, but can also be carried out by the IKA Service department.
