Sharp’s Microwave Drawer has been awarded the internationally acclaimed 2025 iF Design Award, recognising excellence in design, functionality, and user experience. The award-winning product officially launched in Australia in March 2026 and is distributed locally by Tempo.
The iF Design Award is one of the world’s most respected design competitions, celebrating products that demonstrate outstanding innovation and quality. Sharp’s Microwave Drawer distinguished itself among thousands of global entries for its seamless integration, intuitive usability, and modern aesthetic.
The Microwave Drawer features a built-in, under-bench installation that enhances both accessibility and visual appeal. Its smooth pull-out drawer design offers a safer and more ergonomic cooking experience with touch-open and close functionality and hands-free wave-open feature.
Tempo general manager, Nigel Dent said, “Winning the 2025 iF Design Award reflects our dedication to creating products that combine innovation with everyday practicality. The Microwave Drawer is designed to elevate the kitchen experience, and we are pleased to bring this globally recognised product to Australian consumers.”
As the official distributor in Australia, Tempo supports the nationwide rollout of the Sharp Microwave Drawer, ensuring availability through major stockist partners and providing local customer service and support.
