In the "product information" text fields of the registration form, we need a short description of the product, its function and its design in both German and English (max. 650 characters per language, including punctuation.) The jury will use this short description as a basis for their decision.
If you receive an award, this description will be presented to you again as a basis for the representation in the iF material award yearbook 2010 and in the iF online exhibition. This description must be provided in both languages.
Use the registration form to upload 2 photos for each competition entry in the following format:
Image size: max. 300 x 300 pixels
Larger images (max. 2 MB) will automatically be scaled down
Color format: RGB
File format: JPEG (.jpg)
The images are a necessary part of the registration. Please have these images ready and available before you open the registration form.
In order to provide the same conditions of participation for everyone, each participant in the iF material award can submit two photos only. Only in the case of complex products or systems, may an exception be granted. If this applies to you, please send an email to the iF team that is responsible for the iF competition you are participating in. iF reserves the right to have the final decision on this matter.
After we have received your online registration including two photos of your product ...
1. We will send you an email confirming that we have received your registration and photos. This email will also contain an entry-ID for your entry.
The entry-ID is composed of the competition-ID and a five-digit number that identifies your entry and allocates it to your personal data. It is very important that you use this entry-ID for all communication, shipping, product- and packaging labels since we will otherwise not be able to identify the entry.
2. You will receive an invoice for the participation fees. This is payable via bank transfer (see bank details). Unfortunately, we cannot accept cash- or credit card payments.
Please note that the invoice address cannot be changed once it has been registered.
Please check whether your registration is complete and contains all the necessary data.
