The PINCH Collection Selected for the ADI Design Index, Heading Towards the 2026 Compasso d’Oro

We are proud to announce that the PINCH collection has been officially selected by ADI for the ADI Design Index, officially entering the exclusive shortlist of finalist projects for the prestigious 2026 Compasso d'Oro Award.

Distinctive Features: PINCH

Made of high-performance concrete and steel, PINCH is not just a simple element of urban furniture, but a modular system of seating and planters defined by:

• Universal Design: A fully inclusive and barrier-free system, conceived as a democratic meeting point to foster socialization in public spaces.

• Ecological Contribution: An integrated composition with a planter designed to increase urban greenery, actively supporting the reduction of fine particulate matter and improving air quality.

• Certified Sustainability: A project that fully complies with the DNSH (Do No Significant Harm) principle to guarantee complete adherence to environmental transition criteria.

The DIMCAR Design Philosophy

At present, the practical application of the DNSH principle in this sector represents an exclusive asset of DIMCAR and no more than two other companies nationwide (one of which is only nominally Italian). This prestigious recognition, combined with a design philosophy well ahead of the competition, marks the beginning of a gradual and definitive elevation of the technical, ecological, and brand image content of the entire DIMCAR production.
