JAPTH wins the prestigious Sustainable Lighting Product Award 2020.
Winner Product Awards: Wheel lamp
The Wheel (design: Richard Hutten) of JAPTH is the winner of the prestigious Sustainable Lighting Product Awards 2020. The Sustainable Interior Design Awards are the annual awards for the most revolutionary and sustainable design products and the most innovative and sustainable design brand. With the competition, the organization invites brands and design studios to contribute a sustainable product or brand within the home & living segment. The organization's goal is to promote the development of sustainable products that last a lifetime and have a positive impact on people, planet and profit.
The Wheel lamp scores convincingly on five of the six criteria of the Sustainable Product Evaluation Model. The lamp is produced locally and is high quality and repairable. The materials, including the LED lamps, are made locally. Japth uses materials that are already circular in the base and are also used in other sectors. These are steel, aluminium and acrylate. Because they are not glued, the lamps are easy to repair and later disassemble. As a result, the materials remain valuable for future generations of lamps. Japth works with people with a distance to the labour market. "The Wheel lamp fits the trend that sustainable may also be beautiful," says José Molenaar.
