Two Red Dot Product Design Awards for 3Shape

Copenhagen, April 12, 2018 – 3Shape, a global leader in 3D scanners and CAD/CAM software solutions, has received two Red Dot awards - the international distinction for high design quality. The product design awards were presented for the 3Shape E-scanner series for dental labs, and the 3Shape TRIOS 3 Wireless intraoral scanner for dental practices.

The solutions were selected by the Red Dot’s global jury of 40 recognized experts. The two honors now mark the third and fourth 3Shape solution to receive a Red Dot product design award in the last two years.

“Our solutions are influenced by the Scandinavian tradition for design, form and function, but most importantly, they are developed to enable dental professionals to provide better care for their patients,” says Nikolaj Deichmann, 3Shape Co-Founder and Co-CEO. He adds, “We are very excited about the award and appreciate the Red Dot jury’s recognition.”
