GOLD FOR WHIRLPOOL AT THE UK DESIGN AWARDS

The Whirlpool Glamour range of appliances has won a gold award for Kitchen Innovation of the Year at the Design Awards¹ 2010 held in London on 5th October.

The stringent set of judging criteria sought products that demonstrate the highest standards, reinforcing design credentials of the industry and to achieve ever-higher standards of design.  An independent panel of judges voted the Whirlpool Glamour range as setting the benchmark within the built-in market with design, technical innovation and performance excellence.

“Winning gold at the Design Award is a tremendous achievement and is magnificent recognition of one of the most desirable built-in range of appliances on the market today.  Our Glamour line certainly looks the business, but it is far from being all glamour and glitz. This is a powerful and highly versatile range, which utilises the finest technology on the market, delivers excellent performance and results,” says Juliana Sado Brand Marketing Manager,

Raj Mistry, Head of Marketing comments: “We are truly proud of this achievement.  The gold Design Award is a superb accolade and to be voted by an independent panel of judges means that the award adds retailer value and will boost consumer confidence at the point of sale too.”
