Mirka DEROS® RS and DEXOS® Receive Red Dot Awards
May 15, 2025
Mirka celebrates a double win at this year’s Red Dot Design Award: Product Design 2025. The DEROS® RS 600 sander and the DEXOS® 1217 M AFC dust extractor each received an award for outstanding design in this international competition.
While this double victory is exceptional, it is not the first time Mirka has triumphed at the Red Dot Award. The company’s sanders have received accolades in the past, with the LEROS® winning a prize in 2018, the AOS-B in 2017, and the DEROS® in 2014.
Mirka CEO Stefan Sjöberg welcomes the recent success at the contest.
– Winning such a prestigious award as the Red Dot is always an honour. Winning it for two products in the same year is twice as special. Still, the greatest reward is knowing we are staying true to our user-centred approach to design. It’s one of the ways we uphold the trust our customers place in us.
Mirka’s New Dust Extractor Impresses
For Mirka, the DEXOS win is especially significant, as this new machine represents a bold step forward in the evolution of Mirka’s dust extraction range.
Veli-Pekka Västi, general manager of the power tools department at Mirka emphasises that DEXOS has made a strong first impression, and that we have only seen the beginning of the new dust extractor line’s potential and impact on the market.
– With the launch of the first product from the DEXOS platform, we have set a new standard for professional dust extractors. It is by far the most user-friendly, intelligent, and effective product in its segment on the market. Additionally, it can become even smarter through future software updates.
This year’s awards are yet another feather in the cap for Mirka’s product development, showcasing the company’s expertise and innovation. Both products are manufactured locally at Mirka’s production facilities in Jakobstad, Finland.
The Red Dot Design Award is an annual contest recognising products, communication projects, and designs, with winners selected by an international panel of experts. Notable past winners include Apple’s AirPods Pro, Bahco’s battery-powered secateurs BCL23, and Volvo’s electric XC40.
