Projecta, a leading name in power management solutions, has achieved global recognition by winning two Red Dot Design Awards for its Intelli-Start IS2000 and IS3000/5000 lithium jump starters.

Key Features of the Intelli-Start IS2000, IS3000 and IS5000:

1. 1. Compact and rugged design for portable use in harsh environments
2. 2. User-friendly interface with clear digital displays
3. 3. Advanced safety features for secure jump-starting
4. 4. High-performance power delivery designed for professional and consumer applications

This recognition underscores Projecta’s commitment to solving real-world challenges with smart and dependable technology.

A Victory for Australian Industrial Design

The Red Dot wins also affirm Projecta’s position as a global leader in Australian-designed automotive technology.

“This confirms that Australian-designed products can compete with the very best,” said Mark Finocchiaro. “We’re proud to showcase what’s possible when performance and design come together.”
