Dinoflex rakes in design excellence honours

Salmon Arm’s Dinoflex Group has been named a 2012 Platinum, Gold and Silver Award winner in the Awards for Design Excellence.

Salmon Arm’s Dinoflex Group has been named a 2012 Platinum, Gold and Silver Award winner for several of their products in the Awards for Design Excellence (ADEX) competition.

In the last 18 years, ADEX has become the largest and most prestigious awards program for product design of furniture, fixtures and finishes marketed to the design trade.

“The 2011-12 ADEX Awards attracted upwards of 500 companies submitting more than 2,800 innovative new products,” said John Platter, executive director of ADEX. “The ADEX Award has recognized many outstanding product designs over the years – Dinoflex Group has earned its place among that elite group.”

Dinoflex’s custom design flooring and logos, equine tiles, and NuVista exterior tiles all won platinum awards. Taking gold were: comfort cushion acoustic underlay; evolution commercial flooring tiles; and Dinoflex playground tiles.

The environmentally sustainable tiles are made from recycled rubber and have a low life-cycle cost, leading to increased savings.

“Given that the ADEX Awards are one of the largest recognition programs in the design trade, we couldn’t be more proud to have had our products chosen, and we are incredibly excited to have been recognized,” said Terry MacLeod, CEO of Dinoflex Group.
