Design Journal magazine has recognized three Johnsonite solutions as among the top products in its annual ADEX awards program.

ADEX stands for Awards for Design Excellence and is the largest and most prestigious awards program for product design of furniture, fixtures and finishes marketed to the design trade.

Design Journal as a way of recognizing superior product design introduced the Awards for Design Excellence (ADEX) in 1994. The 2009-10 ADEX Awards attracted upwards of 500 companies submitting approximately two thousand innovative new products.

An anonymous panel of professionals representing a cross section of the design industry conducts all voting for the ADEX Awards. ADEX judges are among the ablest in their respective areas of expertise and so the ADEX Award represents the best product designs of the year in the opinion of those who themselves reside at the top of their specialty.

Each category has potential for three award levels of platinum, gold or silver. Judges award points in several categories for each entry. Total points earned determine each product’s score. In 2009 Johnsonite’s Acczent Wood and Mesto won the gold award and ID Premier won at the platinum level.
