Kriskadecor receives the Special Mention for Design 2024

We are pleased to announce that José M. Sans Amill, S.A., the company behind the Kriskadecor brand, has received a Special Mention in the Design and Business category at the National Innovation and Design Awards 2024, the highest recognition in the field of design in Spain. This prestigious award is given by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities.

The jury highlighted Kriskadecor’s almost century-long history as “an example of design’s ability to turn a craft into an industrial product that floods homes, establishments and diverse spaces around the world with beauty, functionality, innovation and identity”.

Indeed, the real revolution at Kriskadecor came in the 2000s, when the company made the strategic decision to make design a fundamental pillar of its development. Since then, every installation and every project has not only told a story, but has inspired creativity and aroused all kinds of emotions. Not even the most adventurous forecaster could have imagined that the modest metallic curtains, initially installed on the doors of homes and commercial premises, would end up creating lights and shadows in Gaudí’s emblematic Casa Batlló. To discover all the details, we invite you to read Kriskadecor’s innovation story.

Acknowledgments

This recognition would not have been possible without the effort, creativity and commitment of all the people who have been part of Kriskadecor throughout almost one hundred years of history. To all the members of the Kriskadecor family, both past and present, we extend our most sincere thanks.

We would also like to thank our suppliers, designers and customers for their continued support. Your collaboration and vision inspire us to keep innovating every day.

Finally, we would like to thank the jury of the National Design Awards 2024, chaired by the Secretary General for Innovation, Teresa Riesgo Alcaide, and which included Álvaro Catalán de Ocón Roca de Togores, Chisco Villar Vázquez, Susana Sancho Céspedes, Delia Rodríguez Marín, Marc Morillas Planas and Ignacio García Fenoll.
