CAIRO, EGYPT - Media OutReach - 28 June 2023 - Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, won this year's iF DESIGN AWARD and Red Dot Design Award, the world-renowned design prizes with its Miluz E switch series in the discipline of a product in building technology and outstanding achievements in product design, respectively. These prestigious design awards recognize and honor Schneider Electric products for the remarkable, creative design concept and functionality and their role in empowering our community to make the most of our energy and resources for a climate-positive environment.


Each year, the world's oldest independent design organization, Hannover-based iF International Forum Design GmbH organizes the iF DESIGN AWARD. Miluz E series of switch products won over the 133-member jury, made up of independent experts worldwide, with its modular and adaptable design. The competition was intense: almost 11,000 entries were submitted from 56 countries in hopes of receiving the seal of quality.

The Red Dot Design Award is one of the largest design competitions worldwide. The Red Dot Label has become established internationally as one of the most sought-after marks of quality for good design. Schneider Electric's Miluz E design stood out amongst a keen competition of various designs.

"Quality and dependability are hallmarks of Schneider Electric's products and solutions. However, design is the distinguishing feature that improves our customers' experiences. We are honored to win these awards with the Miluz E series of switches. They serve as a rewarding recognition of how our teams innovate new ways to design everyday objects," shared Denis Marant, Senior Vice President, Home and Distribution Division – International Hub, Schneider Electric, "These awards will certainly encourage our teams to thrive and innovate to accelerate efficiency through design further with creativity."

The Miluz E switches have a modular design and are made from high-quality materials to reach a long-life cycle.
