Phitek wins Best Design Award for Business Lite Headphones

Phitek, leading supplier of electronic innovations for inflight entertainment (IFE), has won the Silver award in Best Product Design: Non-Consumer category at the annual New Zealand Best Design Awards for its recently-launched Business Lite headphones.

Phitek has two versions of the Business Lite to complement its premium range of headphones – noise cancelling and non-noise cancelling. Both are designed to last 100 flight sectors and can be customized with airline branding.

“When developing Business Lite headphones, we were determined to provide Phitek’s signature premium sound quality while minimizing the cost of ownership for the airlines,” says Chris van der Loo, Product and Marketing Director for Phitek. “The Best Design Award is a recognition that we not only managed to deliver high-quality technical design; we also carefully considered physical aesthetics and incorporated premium styling and high-end comfort for the passenger."

Phitek remains the only company in the aviation industry that provides both headphones and audio connectors. The award-winning Business Lite headphones will be available for viewing and testing at the upcoming APEX Expo in Singapore at stand 1729, 24-27 October 2016.
