Throughout our company's history, we have been repeatedly honored with awards for the excellent design of our hardware. These show that we provide our customers with high-quality solutions that harmonize technology, function and form.

The first design award for Pyramid was the prestigious iF Design Award. We received it in 1991 for the Waveline PC family. Our most recent awards went to two self-service solutions. In 2020, our POLYTOUCH® FLEX 21.5 kiosk system won over the jury of the European Product Design Award. In 2021, our POLYTOUCH® NANO self-checkout terminal won one of the coveted Good Design Awards from the Chicago Athenaeum.

Our design and development expertise also benefits customers who require tailor-made OEM and ODM solutions. Whether individual customization or a completely new concept - Pyramid combines technological excellence with unique design for brand-specific solutions with a unique selling proposition.
