Third award in a row: GEZE TS 7000 door closer receives German Innovation Award 2026

The continued recognition by independent expert juries proves that the TS 7000 meets the spirit of the times and fulfils the highest demands of modern architecture. Following the ICONIC AWARD 2025 and the German Design Award 2026, the German Innovation Award now completes the awards triple – even before the official market launch this summer.

We are very proud to receive another prestigious award for our TS 7000. This award motivates us once again to understand our customers’ needs and continuously develop the best products for them.

The powerful TS 7000 door closer combines innovative functions with a clear focus on design, convenience and safety. Thanks to the new Easyflow technology, which ensures particularly high efficiency, the TS 7000 combines effortless opening with reliable closing. This allows doors to be operated with ease while still closing reliably – even in safety-critical situations such as airlocks or escape routes, regardless of temperature or season. In this way, the TS 7000 door closer sets completely new standards for modern building concepts.

In addition, the new door closer generation from GEZE meets the requirements of DIN 18040 and DIN Spec 1104, thereby ensuring unrestricted accessibility. Thanks to its aesthetic and flexible design, the TS 7000 adapts to almost any installation situation, offering maximum planning freedom for architects and peace of mind for installation companies. Universal installation using a single door closer body for all mounting types is both simple and highly practical. The new SNAPnFIX technology makes installation even easier. More than one million tested cycles demonstrate its exceptional durability.

Recognition for pioneering innovations that improve everyday life

“Those who prevail against such high-calibre competition with this award demonstrate impressively that they belong to the very best,” says the German Design Council, which has been promoting the relevance of design and innovation for more than 70 years. Founded in 1953 on the initiative of the German Bundestag, it strengthens companies’ competitiveness through design. Since 2012, it has presented the German Innovation Award to pioneering innovations that improve everyday life and drive transformation.
