Means of Reducing Environmental Impact"
COMPTON, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Belkin International, Inc., has been recognized in I.D. magazine`s 2009 Annual
Design Review in the "Consumer Products" category for the Conserve Surge
Protector. Conserve was chosen for not only its design, but also its ability to
reduce environmental impact while improving the quality of everyday life.

Since 1954, the Annual Design Review has recognized the best in product,
furniture, graphic, and environment design, from the iconic to the obscure.
Throughout the years, this annual showcase has chronicled the evolution of
design, and highlighted its impact on material and visual culture. Each year,
the featured work is chosen by a jury of leading practitioners, who, along with
I.D.`s editorial team, focus the abundance of submissions into a clear survey of
the state of design.
