Helinox wins 2025 iF Design Award for chair One (re) product design

Global outdoor brand Helinox has won the prestigious ‘iF Design Award 2025’ in the Product Design category with its latest product, the ‘Chair One (re)’. Known for seamlessly blending functionality with innovative design, Helinox has consistently been recognised by world-renowned design awards. This latest achievement reaffirms the brand’s design philosophy and competitive edge.

Helinox’s flagship product, ‘Chair One’, has sold over 1.2 million units worldwide, establishing itself as a best-selling camping chair. Lightweight, highly durable, and easily portable, the brand has secured a strong position in the global outdoor market. The newly introduced Chair One (re) builds on this legacy by incorporating user feedback to enhance stability and comfort.

While maintaining the iconic design of the original Chair One, the new model features an innovative square rivet assembly system, reinforcing the frame for increased strength and durability. The structure has been improved to provide greater stability, while its ergonomic design and tensioned fabric structure deliver optimal support when seated. The balanced aesthetic, combining a streamlined frame with curved fabric, enhances the chair’s overall sophistication.

At the core of Helinox’s design philosophy is minimalism - achieving maximum seating space with the least structural complexity. The brand also prioritises sustainability by selecting eco-conscious materials, aligning with its vision for responsible innovation. These enhancements reflect Helinox’s commitment to its motto, ‘We’ll elevate your experience’, by continuously improving its products' functionality and aesthetics.

Beyond this latest IF Design Award win, Helinox has consistently achieved outstanding results in prestigious design competitions. Previous iF Design Award-winning products include the Lite Cot, Café Chair, and Café Table. The brand has also been recognised by the Red Dot Design Award, receiving accolades for Chair One, Table One, Ground Chair, Swivel Chair, Lite Cot, and Nona Dome 4.0, further demonstrating its leadership in design excellence.

Helinox Global CEO Young Lah stated, “The iF Design Award is one of the most esteemed design accolades worldwide, and this recognition affirms Helinox’s commitment to continuous design innovation. Moving forward, we will continue to create products that deliver both functionality and aesthetic appeal, ensuring the best possible outdoor experience for our users.”
