Project

Project details A US-based kitchenware brand wanted to develop a silicone sink mat with a central perforation to protect the sink surface and support kitchen utensils. Testing revealed three problems: the edges did not fit the sink bottom properly, the surface texture made cleaning difficult, and the central drain perforation was misaligned.

Project details A British brand specializing in bottle and accessory protective products planned to develop a heat-resistant and non-slip glass sleeve. Testing of the prototype revealed several issues: stress concentration at the edges of the holes, poor fit between the sleeve’s diameter and the glass, and inconsistent hole wall forming quality.

Project details A German kitchenware brand wanted to develop a flat silicone heat-insulating mat suitable for family dining tables, kitchen baking, and everyday heat insulation. The original design sample had three main problems: warped edges, insufficient anti-slip properties, and easy tearing upon demolding.

Project details A Spanish beverage accessory brand wanted to develop a petal-shaped cup sleeve that was practical, non-slip, and decorative. The client’s original design had three main problems: the ribs were prone to breakage at the base, the petal edges were difficult to unmold, and the cup was not stable enough.

Project details A Polish mother and baby brand specializing in infant food and sippy cups wanted to develop a silicone sippy cup for offline mother and baby stores. The client’s existing samples had issues with leakage at the rim and straw, and the handle turned white during use.

Project details A Swiss brand of portable outdoor tableware planned to launch a foldable coffee cup to replace paper and plastic cups. Early samples had issues: the folding texture cracked after repeated folding, water leaked from the gap between the lid and the body, and the labeling had poor adhesion.

Project details A Belgian coffee equipment brand planned to develop an environmentally friendly, portable coffee cup lid. The client’s existing design leaked easily when filled with hot water, and the drinking spout and other structural parts were prone to cracking after repeated use.

Project details A Canadian holiday-themed baking product brand wanted to develop a six-cavity, one-piece Christmas tree-shaped baking mold for high-temperature ovens. Prototypes made with other manufacturers had problems: tiered steps prone to breakage, sticking during demolding, and air bubbles on the surface.

Project details An Italian home care brand planned to develop a soft-touch silicone brush head that can be filled with shampoo to care for the scalps of infants and adults. The existing sample had issues: massage teeth prone to breakage at the base, and outer edges warping and deforming.

Project details A South Korean 3C digital accessory brand specializing in affordable luxury phone cases found that samples from other suppliers had two main problems: corners prone to cracking, and buttons that felt too stiff.

Project details A British mother and baby product brand specializing in infant feeding products found that samples from previous manufacturers had problems: insufficient suction cup adhesion, handles prone to whitening and cracking, exposed parting lines, and burrs on the bowl rim.

Project details A Dutch holiday-themed baking tool brand planned to develop a 6-cavity pumpkin-shaped baking mold. Samples from the original supplier had issues such as difficult demolding of the thin pumpkin relief, inconsistent heights among the six cavities, and air trapping within the relief recesses.

Project details An Italian brand specializing in refrigerator freezing, preservation, and storage products planned to develop a matching ice cube tray sealing lid. The client’s existing sample was easily scratched during assembly and warped and cracked at the corners once placed in the freezer.

Project details A Spanish baking equipment brand wanted to develop a rectangular food-grade silicone tray for baking, freezing, and storage. The original design had three main problems: right-angled corners leading to stress concentration, difficulty controlling wall thickness uniformity, and air bubbles on the surface.

Project details A British home and lifestyle brand wanted to develop a silicone night light with a soft, tactile feel, switched between lighting modes by tapping. Market research identified three key issues: homogeneous designs, improper wall-thickness design, and LED components prone to becoming loose.
