Scanstrut, a global leader in outdoor technology, is proud to announce that its Ventura Series has been awarded a Red Dot Award: Product Design 2026, one of the world’s most prestigious and internationally recognised marks of design excellence.
The Ventura Series was recognised by the Red Dot Jury for its exceptional design quality, combining precision engineering, intuitive functionality and a refined, cohesive aesthetic. It delivers a fully integrated range of exterior utility solutions, including 12V power, USB-C charging, solar, water, TV and mains connections, all within a compact, low-profile and unified design language.

This latest recognition adds to an exceptional year for Scanstrut. The Ventura Series has also been awarded the iF DESIGN AWARD 2026, further reinforcing its position as a benchmark product in global design.
In addition, the range recently secured 1st Place in the Equipment Design category at the European Innovation Awards 2026, presented at CMT Stuttgart, highlighting its impact within the RV and leisure vehicle industry.
Winning the Red Dot Award is a significant achievement for our team and a powerful validation of our commitment to design-led engineering.
