beMatrix has been crowned winner of not one but two of this year’s iF design awards, the world-renowned design prize, organised by International Forum Design.

to receive this recognition for the hard work of our complete team,”
says Stefaan Decroos, CEO of the beMatrix group.
Fast Clamp
Out of the 10,807 submissions, the beMatrix Fast Clamp won in the
