Design

Our team welds content with functionality to create appealing products. We use advanced technologies to turn drawings into lifelike prototypes and aim for a perfect balance between look and feel, functionality, cost and environmental impact.

Deliver

During this phase, we translate the well -defined product concept into real products meeting the highest quality standards. Our global in-house production capabilities and knowledge enables us to be flexible and ensure a smooth introduction and delivery. We offer full customer support from initial design to final product supply and beyond.

deStudio

deStudio is our in-house multidisciplinary team of designers, engineers and product developers, all collaborating to construct future travel and foodservice products, enhanced services and production methodologies.

It is where inspiration is born, new trends are conceptualized and innovative products created. Whether it’s developing a new product line, revitalising an existing range, or helping our customers reach a competitive edge though innovative design, our talented and experienced team delivers on any creative or operational challenge.

Customer-centric product design

In order to deliver the best possible customer experience, we don’t limit ourselves to just designing aesthetically pleasing products, there’s also a decidedly functional aspect. How many portions will be served? Hot meals or cold? Which branded comfort items are complementary with your brand? How will the product design affect logistics, how will it be used by the consumer and of course it’s disposal stage. This knowledge and experience is something that we gladly share with our clients and it is this aspect which substantiates our claim to bring added value to any project.

An interconnected network of industry experts

We believe a collaborative and multidisciplinary development approach is the key to innovation. This is why we work together with industry experts such as trend watchers, Michelin star chefs, fashion designers and scientific researchers to name a few. This way we are able to provide our customers with innovative, future proof products and services that do not only deliver on today’s requirements but also anticipate the needs of tomorrow.
