At Whistle Design Group, we’ve always believed that great design is more than just problem-solving—it’s about pushing boundaries and redefining what’s possible. That’s why we’re proud to announce that our collaboration with WORX+, the Grindworx King Series Concrete Grinders, is now officially design award winning, having received two accolades at the 2025 Good Design Awards.
Recognised for Excellence in Engineering and Industrial Design
The design award winning King Series was honoured in both the Engineering Design category and the Product Design – Commercial and Industrial sub-category. These awards celebrate the grinders’ innovative mechanical systems, intelligent automation, and ergonomic design—hallmarks of a product built for performance and precision.
- Engineering Design: Acknowledging the advanced control systems, permanent magnet motor technology, and modular chassis that redefine serviceability and grinding accuracy.
- Product Design – Commercial and Industrial: Celebrating the grinder’s bold aesthetics, intuitive user interface, and human-centred design that enhances operator comfort and efficiency.
A Vision Realised
From its debut at World of Concrete 2025 in Las Vegas to the stage at the ICC Sydney, the King Series has captured attention for its forward-thinking approach to industrial equipment. Designed for professionals in surface preparation and construction, the GK-700 and GK-850 models combine raw power with refined usability.
Key features include:
- Split-Chassis Enclosure for modularity and control
- Remote Control & Autopilot for seamless operation
- Advanced Automation with real-time feedback
- Human-Centred Touchpoints for intuitive interaction
Designing for “Better”
This year’s Good Design Awards theme “Rewarding, Defining and Celebrating Better ______.” invited designers to explore what “better” means today. For Whistle Design Group, “better” means smarter, safer, and more sustainable design. The design award winning King Series is a testament to that philosophy.
Looking Ahead
We are grateful to WORX+ for their partnership, and we are honoured to be recognised together among the world’s leading innovators. The King Series isn’t just a product—it’s a symbol of what’s possible when engineering meets empathy, and design meets durability.
