Tilsatec wins Red Dot Design Award 2025

The Red Dot is the distinction for high design quality and only products which demonstrate outstanding design are awarded the coveted seal.

Collide-x breaks the mould in impact protection, offering professionals the power to perform even the trickiest tasks without restriction or bulky bumpers in high-risk sectors such as oil and gas, mining, and construction. Delivering level F/A9 cut protection alongside maximum ANSI/ISEA 138 level 3 impact protection, the 68-9320 offers the highest levels of cut and impact protection on the market today. 

In fact Comparing our Collide-x3 6.5mm bumpers to competing 7mm level 2 TPR bumpers, the outcome is an astonishing 38.5% improvement in force reduction, resulting in ANSI level 3 Impact protection.

At the heart of Collide-x gloves is the integration of advanced KOROYD technology. Unlike traditional TPR the innovative two-step damage control system that absorbs and redirects energy away from localised impact zones, limiting dangerous force to reduce the risk of injury. 

The unique encased tubular structure allows for multiple impact performance, ensuring it’s always ready to protect when it counts. 

Encasing the KOROYD welded tube structure inside a soft elastomer allows it to ABSORB the energy of an impact… 

Which it then REDIRECTS away from the impact zone to limit and minimize the impact.  The result of this incredible system is a material which is thin, durable, and lightweight.

The Red Dot Gala is held every summer in Essen, the home city of the Red Dot Design Award.

After the Red Dot Gala, the celebrations continued at the after-show party “Designers’ Night”. The impressive event extends over several halls on the site of the disused Zollverein colliery and the Red Dot Design Museum takes centre stage. Here, the team were proud to see the Collide-x glove displayed in the newly opened special exhibition.
