Presseinformation Press Release Information Presse MEGAprogress and MEGAdrive Strong individually. Unbeatable together Düsseldorf, November 2012: Blanco CS presents an unbeatable team at Medica 2012. MEGAprogress functional cabinets and MEGAdrive functional trolleys have been presented the "red dot design award" after winning over the jury with their high degree of functionality, smart design and many useful extras. Both of these team players add functional value at the workplace and feature fresh colours which ensure the highest level of comfort for both patients and clinic personnel. "Winning the coveted 'red dot' emphasises that product design is more than just styling and visual quality," asserted Nadine Kretschmer, Director of Marketing and Communication at Blanco CS. She continued, "Product design has a lasting effect on the image of the entire Blanco brand because we consider design an essential instrument for differentiation. Our strategic approach is developing a comprehensive and emotional design." Just like MEGAprogress functional cabinets, MEGAdrive functional trolleys are also ideally coordinated with the everyday work of clinic personnel, both in terms of function and ergonomics. Clever details such as energy-saving LED interior lighting, flexible marking signs and the ingenious MEGAclick accessory system add true value and simplify everyday work in the clinic. The cabinets and trolleys can also be equipped with electronic locks so that only authorised persons have access. Various security levels and user groups can be easily organised using it. Thanks to the use of high-quality materials and exact finishing, the "made in Germany" quality of both team players particularly stands the test of harsh day-to-day work in clinics. 1 Presseinformation Press Release Information Presse Number of characters: 2,043 (with blanks) Photos and possible captions: File BLANCO-CS_unschlagbares Team Strong individually, Unbeatable together – the new MEGAdrive functional cabinets with MEGAdrive functional trolleys Photo: BLANCO CS File BLANCO-CS _Megaprogress The new generation of MEGAprogress functional cabinets feature fresh colours, an attractive design and an innovative value-added concept which ensure the comfort of both patients and clinic personnel.
