LiftPod recognised with Edison Award
We are delighted to announce that our collaboration with JLG Industries on the development of the innovative LiftPod has been recognised with a prestigious Edison Award in the Product Design category. This is in addition to the iF Design Award and the GOOD DESIGN Award that LiftPod has already received.
LiftPod received its Edison Award in Fort Myers on 16th April, in recognition of its outstanding innovation. The Edison Awards celebrate excellence in product development, honouring innovators who embody the spirit and legacy of Thomas Edison. As with all of this year’s winners, LiftPod was selected for recognition as it demonstrates the transformative power of innovation to shape industries, improve everyday lives, and drive meaningful progress around the world.
The DCA team was proud to receive a Bronze Edison Award as part of this recognition. We were especially excited when, in a standout moment from the event, host Segun Oduolowu chose to deliver his opening remarks live from an elevated LiftPod, an engaging and memorable way to showcase the product’s capabilities and set the tone for the event.
LiftPod is a first-of-its-kind, compact, quick-folding, single-person low-level access lift designed for facility maintenance in commercial and retail spaces. Its innovative quick folding, compact form allows it to be manoeuvred easily and deployed conveniently around job sites, allowing users to work more safely, hands-free at heights up to 3.5m.
This award stands as a significant endorsement of the work delivered by both the DCA and JLG project teams, celebrating a collaboration that has proven exceptionally successful. Together, we have delivered a groundbreaking solution that not only meets practical needs and improves workplace safety but also helps raise the bar for innovation and design.
“This award win demonstrates how user-centred design and engineering innovation can come together to solve real-world challenges.”
