Epicore Biosystems’ Connected Hydration has been awarded the Red Dot Award for exceptional product design. The Red Dot Award is an internationally recognized seal for excellence in design innovation. Winners around the world are determined by expert juries in the areas of product design, communication design and design concepts.

Epicore’s award-winning Connected Hydration platform is the first sweat-sensing wearable patch and mobile app that equips workers with customized, real-time insights about sweat volume loss, electrolyte loss, body temperature and body movement to inform their hydration needs ahead of adverse dehydration events.

The advanced biowearable is designed to protect industrial athletes working on the frontlines of physically intensive industries including energy, construction, mining, utilities, agriculture, trucking and warehouse packaging, as well as military personnel, from dehydration, heat stress and heat-related injuries.

“We are honored to be recognized for product design excellence by the design jurists at Red Dot,” said Stephen Lee, CTO at Epicore Biosystems. “It’s a reflection of the care we have for our customers who labor in the heat. We were very intentional with how we designed and built the entire Connected Hydration solution to effortlessly empower workers to stay safe and stay hydrated.”

Epicore recently announced the commercial launch of Connected Hydration to empower and protect workers as climate change continues to intensify. Connected Hydration has already been deployed across multiple industrial sectors, including oil and gas, military, engineering services, shipping, climate technology, chemical plants, construction and manufacturing, and with more than 20 multinational corporations, across four continents.
