Dräger is the global market leader in impairment checks (alcohol and drug testing). We have been working closely with the company for 15 years to develop innovative solutions that improve road safety and workplace safety worldwide.
One of the more than 50 products we have supported in product and interface design is the Alcotest 7000. This product sets new standards as a benchmark in the premium screener market. Continuously rising sales figures and positive user feedback underscore the international success of this robust, compact device and its high acceptance among professional users.
Alcohol consumption in road traffic is one of the most common causes of accidents worldwide. Professional measuring devices such as the Alcotest 7000 play a crucial role in protecting lives and preventing accidents. In addition to precise measurement technology and a robust design, intuitive, safe handling and ergonomics under the toughest conditions are key requirements for this device.
From the initial briefing to market readiness, the Alcotest 7000 was developed in close, iterative collaboration with the Dräger team. Early ergonomic and design models for hardware and interface quickly made requirements tangible and accelerated decision-making.
The result: a concept that can be used intuitively without training, is internationally successful, and enjoys the highest level of acceptance among professional users.
The Alcotest 7000 was specifically developed for professional use under demanding conditions. Robust hardware, flexible testing options, intuitive operation, and hygienic handling ensure that the device is valued by power users worldwide and can be used reliably on a daily basis. The ergonomic design and smooth, closed surfaces promote durability and easy cleaning—important factors for high acceptance among professional users.
The design follows the principle of design for purpose: clear user guidance, reduction to the essentials, and a design concept that meets the high demands of use and contributes to positioning the device as a benchmark in the premium screener market.
Economic aspects such as the integration of existing mouthpieces were taken into account, as was digital connectivity: the accompanying app follows the same operating logic as the device itself. Together, both fit into a consistent design language that visually connects the entire product line and strengthens the brand presence.
