Press Release Summary = In recognition of its outstanding design, the new Crown WF 3000 Stacker Series from Goscor Lift Truck Company (GLTC) has received one of the most sought-after design awards world-wide: the red dot. The Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen awards this quality symbol annually for superior design quality.

Press Release Body = The red dot design award is an important indicator of innovation and because of the international nature of the design competition the red dot is regarded as a highly prestigious award.

“Following the race for the best technical innovations in the last years, companies now increasingly focus on sophisticated designs to meet the demands of target-groups in order to maintain their position in the market”, says Prof. Dr. Peter Zec, the initiator of the red dot design award.

“Following the race for the best technical innovations in the last years, companies now increasingly focus on sophisticated designs to meet the demands of target-groups in order to maintain their position in the market”, says Prof. Dr. Peter Zec, the initiator of the red dot design award.

Because of the new emphasis on design it has become difficult to receive awards in the international design competition and the value of an award like the “red dot” is immeasurable.

“Crown trucks have often won major European and American design prizes. In 2004, the Crown X10™ handle for powered pallet trucks and stackers received two prestigious awards for outstanding industrial design: the iF design award 2004 and the red dot award for product design.” says Shafto.

The new Crown WF 3000 Series is available from Goscor in both fork-over and straddle versions for a wide range of applications in retail, distribution centres and warehouses. Together with innovative Crown design and robustness features, the stackers incorporate a short turning radius, compact power unit, and centre-mounted award winning X10™ control handle with brake override to provide the best
manoeuvrability in the industry. With its compact design, the WF 3000, currently the most advanced stacker on the market, is offered in 1.0 and 1.2 ton capacities which can easily manoeuvre loads in tightly congested areas.
