Recognition
We don’t set out to win awards. We set out to do something beautiful with water, and now and then the world notices.
Every product and every installation on this page began the same way: with a belief that how something works and how it makes you feel are never separate questions. Design juries, innovation panels, the people who tend their gardens and the cities that trusted us with their landmarks have all reached the same conclusion. We’re proud of the recognition below. We see it not as a row of trophies, but as quiet confirmation that water, done well, can move people.
Welcome to Oase
A few honors stand out, not because the others matter less, but because they speak directly to what we care about most: design you want to live with, and engineering you can rely on.
German Design Award 2024 · ScaperLine
Aquariums built for aquascapers, where the art of the scape and years of OASE engineering meet as one.
Red Dot Award · BioStyle Hang-On Filter
Filtration so well designed you’d leave it in full view rather than hide it away.
iF Design Award 2023 · biOrb Loop, biOrb Air & CrystalSkim
Three products honored in one year, each shaped with the same intention as the living world it cares for.
Welcome to Oase
Design that feels as good as it works. Awards in this category recognize the look, feel and craft of an Oase product.
ScaperLine: German Design Award 2024, Excellent Product Design
Created for aquascapers, who shape underwater landscapes with the eye of an artist and the patience of a craftsman. For them, beauty and function are the same thing, and so they are for us. The award recognized aquariums that honor the art of the scape while carrying years of Oase engineering quietly inside.
BioStyle Hang-On Filter: Red Dot Award, Product Design
Each year the Red Dot jury honors products that are exceptional to look at and to use. The BioStyle Hang-On Filter earned its place with a clean, modern form and genuinely smart features: technology you’d happily leave on show.
biOrb Loop, biOrb Air and CrystalSkim: iF Design Award 2023
Our hearts beat for the living worlds these products care for, and for the people who love them. The iF jury recognized all three, a reminder that the life inside an aquarium or terrarium deserves equipment designed with just as much care as the home it sits in.
German Design Award: three Special Mentions
The German Design Council’s premium prize has, since 2012, charted the design ideas that matter, across every industry and around the world. Three Oase products have been singled out for design that goes beyond the expected.
Recognition for the ideas and engineering that move the category forward.
TOP 100: four years running
For more than 25 years, TOP 100 has been Germany’s benchmark for innovation among midsize companies. We’re proud to stand among its honorees for the fourth time in a row, not for a single breakthrough, but for the way curiosity and care run through everything we make.
The recognition we treasure most comes from the people who use our products every day.
Top Brand Garden 2023
This honor comes not from a jury but from gardeners themselves. In TestBild’s annual consumer survey, Oase took first place for the fourth year running in pond pumps, preformed garden ponds and water features. We were especially moved to lead the Garden Lights category on the criterion that matters most to us and to the people we serve: Environment & Sustainability.
World records
When a city dreams of something that has never existed, water can answer.
These are not products from a catalog. They are what becomes possible when engineering, artistry and a little courage meet: moments of water that thousands of people share every single day.
At the Xinhu Mingzhu shopping center, the wish was simple and impossible at once: let water fall from the heavens. Today, drops descend on almost invisible threads from a height of 26 meters. It is a world record, and a daily welcome that stops visitors in their tracks.
