Dutch submersible manufacturer U-Boat Worx is delighted to announce that their new NEMO submarine has been recognized with a Red Dot Award for design excellence, as well as being recognized as “best of the best” in the category ‘Mobility and Transportation’.

The international design competition, the “Red Dot Design Award”, is aimed at all those who wish to distinguish their business activities through design. Outstanding design is selected by competent expert juries in the areas of product design, communication design, and design concepts.

A global panel of experts assesses each of the 4,170 entries from 52 countries. After intensive deliberations, the jury awards the Red Dot quality seal only to outstanding projects and brands.

The NEMO is the smallest and lightest submersible ever produced. Built to explore the deep sea in air-conditioned comfort, it can safely dive up to 100 meters; allowing adventurers to explore hidden shipwrecks, search for new aquatic species, or simply enjoy the breathtaking underwater marine environment.

U-Boat Worx has an in-house team of highly experienced specialist engineers and technicians who ensure that the company is at the forefront of the manned submersible market. Combining leading-edge design and manufacturing expertise to produce the world’s most advanced range of luxury submersibles, U-Boat Worx has become the market leader.

“Winning a Red Dot Design Award, as well as being awarded “Best of the Best” in its category, is a crowning achievement for our company,” said Bert Houtman, Founder and Chairman of U-Boat Worx. “It reinforces to our clients that our designs are world class. Our sub owners are not only first to explore unseen sites with the most capable and robust submersible ever built, but also doing so in style.”
