SharkNinja Honored in the Fast Company 2026 Innovation by Design Awards
Now in its 15th year, the Innovation by Design Awards celebrate the designers and businesses addressing today’s most urgent challenges while anticipating the problems of tomorrow. The program is one of the most prestigious design competitions in the industry, spotlighting work that exemplifies originality, beauty, sustainability, user insight, cultural significance, and measurable business impact.
“Great design starts with understanding how people live and what could make their everyday experiences better,” said Ross Richardson, Chief Design Officer at SharkNinja. “One way we do that is by identifying what we call desirability gaps, the experiences people want but can’t easily recreate at home. Across everything we design, it takes thousands of decisions, iterations, and breakthroughs to bring performance, form, and function together in a way that feels effortless. This recognition belongs to our extraordinary team, whose curiosity, ingenuity, and determination turn possibilities into products that positively impact people’s lives.”
SharkNinja’s global innovation engine brings approximately 25 new products to market each year across more than 40 categories spanning kitchen, cleaning, and beauty. Behind that pace is a commitment to refining every detail, from how a product feels in the hand to how seamlessly it fits into daily routines. Through extensive research and in-home testing across thousands of households, global teams translate consumer insights into products that solve real problems delivering accessible innovation and extraordinary value to consumers worldwide.
Shark™ FacialPro™ Glow & Depuffi™ At-Home Hydro-Powered Facial System brings that design philosophy to life by bringing the spa facial experience to the home. The device combines a dual-pump hydro-abrasion system, dermatologist-developed formulas, and hot-and-cold contrast therapy to deliver spa-level extraction, hydration, and depuffing in five steps and 10 minutes. Together, these features turn a complex treatment into an intuitive experience consumers can recreate at home.
Honorees were selected by a panel of top designers, business executives from leading organizations, and Fast Company editors.
“The Innovation by Design Awards have always recognized the ideas that challenge convention and show what’s possible when design is treated as a strategic force, not an afterthought. Congratulations to this year’s honorees, who demonstrate how thoughtful design can solve meaningful problems and create new possibilities for people and businesses,” said Brendan Vaughan, editor-in-chief of Fast Company.
