Double Awards for DFM! Wireless Kinetic Switch Shines at 2025 Dongguan Cup International Industrial Design Competition

Recently, the highly anticipated 2025 Dongguan Cup International Industrial Design Competition concluded successfully. Following three rigorous evaluation rounds—eligibility screening, preliminary round, and semi-finals—the main track of the competition selected 46 finalists each from the Product Group and Concept Group, totaling 92 outstanding designs that stood out from a vast pool of entries. DFM, an innovative enterprise specializing in wireless kinetic switches, achieved a remarkable double victory by winning both the Innovation Award and Excellence Award through its dual breakthroughs in technological R&D and product design, emerging as a standout winner in the intelligent control category of this year's competition.

As a benchmark event in the industrial design sector, the Dongguan Cup International Industrial Design Competition is renowned for its professional evaluation system and extensive industry influence. This year's awards featured high gold content, with only 1 Gold Award, 25 Innovation Awards, and 20 Excellence Awards. Securing two awards amid fierce competition fully demonstrates DFM's comprehensive strength in design philosophy, technological innovation, and market value. The competition jury highly praised DFM's wireless kinetic switch, recognizing it as a perfect integration of technological innovation and industrial design that addresses the pain points of traditional switches while aligning with the current industry trend of green intelligence.

The award-winning wireless kinetic switch from DFM boasts core highlights centered on its innovative "zero battery, zero wiring, zero maintenance" design:

• Adopting patented micro-generator technology, the mechanical energy produced by pressing the switch is instantly converted into electrical energy, completely eliminating reliance on wires and batteries and practicing environmental protection from the source.
• No wall chiseling or wiring required; installation can be completed via screw fixation or adhesive mounting. Compatible with the 86*86mm European standard size, it meets the needs of both new house renovations and old house smart upgrades, significantly reducing construction costs.
• Supporting mainstream protocols such as ZigBee 3.0, it seamlessly connects to global IoT platforms, enabling multi-device linkage (e.g., lighting, curtains, garage doors) to satisfy intelligent control needs across diverse scenarios including homes, hotels, and commercial offices.
• Crafted with military-grade durable materials and featuring an IP65 waterproof and dustproof design, the switch offers a key lifespan exceeding 100,000 presses and stable communication transmission, adapting to complex usage environments.

"Winning two awards at the Dongguan Cup International Industrial Design Competition is industry recognition of DFM's technological innovation and design capabilities," stated a relevant person in charge of DFM. "The company has always adhered to user demand as its core, deeply cultivated the wireless kinetic energy technology field, and accumulated over 300 domestic and international patents. This award is not only an honor but also a driving force. In the future, DFM will continue to focus on the trend of green and intelligent upgrading, continuously optimize product design and technical solutions, and provide more efficient, environmentally friendly, and convenient intelligent control solutions for global users, contributing to industrial upgrading under the 'dual carbon' goals."

It is reported that since its establishment, the Dongguan Cup International Industrial Design Competition has been committed to building a bridge between innovative design and industrial collaboration, promoting the in-depth integration of industrial design with the real economy. DFM's award-winning achievement not only showcases innovative breakthroughs in the wireless kinetic switch sector but also provides valuable insights for design upgrading in the intelligent control industry. With the growing popularity of green and intelligent concepts, DFM will take this award as an opportunity to further expand the global market, empower more application scenarios with innovative design, and illuminate a green and intelligent future.
