TOSHIBA TEC Europe add Award-winning TouchPOS to new product line up
“Perfection by Design” underlines Quality, Innovation
TOSHIBA TEC Europe, a leading retail and industrial automation solutions provider, today announced the ST-A10, a durable and affordable TouchPOS system and winner of the coveted 2007 G-Mark Design Award in Japan earlier this month.
Bringing maximum connectivity, simplified cable management and an ultra-small footprint together helped secure Japan’s most prestigious Design Award. The new ST-A10 TouchPOS is the latest creation of the TOSHIBA TEC Design Centre in Tokyo under Takuro Masuda, taking styling clues from the Toshiba world-class laptop series.
One of 594 companies participating in Japan’s most prestigious Design competition, TOSHIBA TEC captured two out of three prizes for the Toshiba Corporation.
The new TRST-A15 receipt printer (double-sided) and the ST-A10 TouchPOS solution were chosen by the jury out of a total of 1,043 entries to underline that design is expected to play an ever greater role in our lives.
The ST-A10 TouchPOS touchscreen Point of Sales system will be offered to bakeries, hotels, bars, restaurants, service stations, food retailing, chemistry and pharmacies as well as textile and shoe retailing companies.

The new A10 TouchPOS is fully in line with this tradition as the carbon footprint of the TouchPOS is minimized throughout the entire lifecycle of the product – from manufacturing to retail operations to a controlled recycling process.
