OJMAR, the Eibar-based manufacturer of smart locking systems, has been awarded the ‘Best of NeoCon’ awards for Innovation and Sustainability at the 34th annual NeoCon Awards. This recognition was granted during the NeoCon fair, one of the leading events for commercial interior design, held annually in Chicago, USA.
Highlighting innovation and sustainability
Widely considered the most prestigious awards in the commercial interior design industry, the ‘Best of NeoCon’ accolades highlight pioneering solutions that exhibit exceptional innovation and design. This year, a total of 126 awards were given to products across 50 categories, including Sustainability, Innovation, and Business Impact as the most notable categories. The winners were selected by a distinguished panel of 53 architects, designers, specifiers, corporate clients, facilities managers, and leading industry media who evaluated the products on-site.
Recognition for Ojmar’s OTS 20 Batteryless lock
“We are especially proud to receive two ‘Best of NeoCon’ awards for Best Innovation and Best Sustainable Solution for our latest release, the OTS 20 Batteryless. This award is particularly meaningful to us as it recognises our commitment to technology, R&D, and environmental care through the manufacture of cutting-edge locking solutions,” says Ramon Gabika, General Manager of Ojmar.
The OTS 20 Batteryless lock from Ojmar is the first smart lock for lockers and office furniture on the market that requires no batteries. It represents a paradigm shift by not needing batteries, accumulators, cables, or maintenance. This innovative locking system is self-powered through revolutionary ‘Push Power’ technology, where the user themselves generates the energy needed for its operation by pressing the knob, thus eliminating the need for external power sources. The lock significantly contributes to helping organisations transform into more sustainable spaces and achieve their carbon footprint reduction goals.
A commitment to innovation and sustainability
“We have paved a new path and reaffirmed our commitment as agents of change towards a more sustainable environment. This product is just the beginning of a very promising journey,” says Aitor Elorza, Sales and Marketing Director of Ojmar.
