Final Statement about the contest from the jury

The jury has received a huge amount and variety of high qualitative and creative ideas. Some of the jury members have been very skeptical in the beginning of the contest and Melitta had to be courageous to dare such a project. However, the huge amount of community members and valuable ideas surprised all of us in the end. The bunch of ideas was just amazing! Swirl and the jury members assess the contest as a great success!

The Smell Fighters Idea Contest Team wants to thank you all for your creative and high-class ideas and for all the time you spend on creating your designs. It was a very special and innovative contest for us! Thank you all!

Winners of the contest

1st Prize: 2.000 € Jury statement
To the jury’s mind the idea "sneak_fresh" has the highest fit to the contest topic as well as the highest value for the customers. Therefore it was determined to be the winner of the Smellfighters idea contest. The creator of the idea has clearly recognized the problem and provided a great and still very functional solution. Most impressive about this idea is that functionality is integrated into the design. An old active principle has been reinterpreted in a simple and useful way.
2nd Prize: 1.000 € Jury statement
The idea "Bloom - The Air Medic" impressed the jury with an extreme high level of creativity and a new principle of operation. The jury considered it as a visionary idea reflecting the bionic principles and is inspired by the natural environment.
3rd Prize: 500 € Jury statement
"The Full Portable Compact Swirl Air Cleaner" reinterprets an old active principle and is very well elaborated. It perfectly fits to the contest topic and provides the opportunity for miscellaneous additional products.
