Zürich, Switzerland – June 2025 – DK Household Brands is proud to announce that the Zyliss Easy Spin Salad Spinner has received a Red Dot Award in Product Design 2025, one of the world’s most prestigious honours for excellence in design. 

Awarded by an independent jury of 40 international design experts, the Red Dot Award celebrates products that stand out through their innovation, functionality, quality, and longevity. Each entry is evaluated individually and rigorously tested by specialists from different fields. Among thousands of submissions worldwide, the Zyliss Easy Spin Salad Spinner distinguished itself “with its clever detailing, that manages to combine functionality with intuitive operation and timeless design,” noted the Red Dot jury. 

This win marks a major milestone for Zyliss, the cleverly swiss brand, which has been undergoing an exciting transformation focused on timeless design, clever functionality, and sustainability. At the heart of this shift is a renewed commitment to creating kitchen tools that deliver practical value while reducing environmental impact. 

The Easy Spin Salad Spinner embodies this mission. It introduces a modern take on a category Zyliss pioneered in 1978, when founder Karl Zysset invented the original salad spinner in Switzerland. Today, the brand continues to lead in the category with thoughtful engineering and updated materials.

Available in in two sizes (S/L) and two different bowl materials (stainless steel/transparent SAN). All four models in the Easy Spin series were recognized by the Red Dot jury, further validating Zyliss’ excellence in product design. 

“Winning the Red Dot Award is not just a celebration of design - it’s a reflection of our commitment to innovation and thoughtfully crafted kitchenware that’s built to last,” said Sheena Ohnemus, Global Brand Manager at Zyliss. “We’re proud to build on our legacy and lead the way forward with clever, multi-functional tools that elevate everyday cooking.”
