On October, 2026, the Red Dot Design Award ceremony was grandly held in Singapore,
where Heli won the Red Dot Design Award for two design entries: the heavy-duty concept forklift
and the intelligent control system.
The German Red Dot Design Award is one of the most prestigious and influential awards in global
industrial design field. Following accolades from IDEA, iF Design Award, Italy's A' Design Award,
and the U.S. IDA Award, Heli has once again earned the Red Dot honor. This consecutive recognition
by international authorities stands as solid proof of Heli's robust design and R&D capabilities.
From turning cutting-edge design concepts into mass-produced products to integrating technological
innovation with real-world operational needs, Heli consistently prioritizes easier handling, safer operation,
greener operations, and smarter management. By doing so, it transforms world-class design standards
into tangible experiences for frontline users.
For the heavy-load logistics scenarios, low-carbon energy consumption, clean operation,
intelligent upgrading, and long-term adaptability are the core necessities, and they are also the key
directions for the iterative upgrading of heavy-load equipment. The Heli Heavy Equipment concept for
forklifts is centered on a forward-looking design concept, integrating minimalist industrial aesthetics
and ergonomics.
While exploring the direction of large-tonnage electrification technology, it has achieved the organic
unity of functional components and aesthetic form. This award confirms its forward-looking innovative
design, precisely aligning with the development trends of the heavy-load logistics industry, unlocking new
possibilities for low-carbon operation, comfortable control, continuous iteration of heavy-load equipment,
and providing a mature innovative solution for the green and intelligent upgrade of heavy-load logistics.
The intelligent control system focuses on the comfort and safety issues faced by forklift drivers in their
frequent operational scenarios. The design adheres to the principles of humanization and modularization,
adopting ergonomic curved shapes to allow the arms to naturally fit, effectively alleviating the fatigue
caused by long-term continuous operation.
The integrated control buttons enable the operator to complete multiple instructions with the smallest
possible movements, enhancing operational efficiency while increasing safety. The intuitive experience
upgrade makes the driver's operation more comfortable and focused, reducing the risk of errors at the
source and effectively improving the safety of on-site operations and the overall fleet operation efficiency.
What's more valuable is that this award-winning design has not remained at the conceptual stage.
It has been gradually integrated into the complete machine products for verification and is advancing
towards commercialization and application, allowing world-class design innovation to truly enter various
real-world warehouse and logistics operation scenarios.
In the future, HeLi will continue to rely on its "dual-track domestic and international" R&D integration
system, deepen technological research and design innovation, and refine high-end equipment products
that combine international aesthetics, robust performance and practical value.
