caretools PASTEL™

Care tools for garden and potted plants are distinguished by their harmonious, beautiful and user-friendly shape. They fit in perfectly into current hygge trend, what is unique in the garden tools category. Colours refer to nature: earth and water.
Product fits into modern urban gardening category, is designed for users that care about their surroundings and plant care is a part of their lifestyle.
During the design process anthropometric data were used, the final result is an ergonomic, oval-shaped handle that fits hands comfortably. They are easy to manipulate as the centre of balance is positioned optimally.
The tools despite their airy feel are really strong and durable thanks to use of composite with fibreglass. Matte texture is pleasant to touch and ensures firm grip. Product is expected to last years of continuous use thanks to the innovatove material.
Tools’ shapes have no crevices and hard to clean spots. Precise construction is resistant to mechanical stress, and at the same time is optimised to use as little raw material as possible. Injection mold sizes are reduced to achieve optimal efficiency.
Packaging is minimal, uses recycled paper and efficient mono-colour print.

Opinion of the experts judging the Dobry Wzór 2018 (Good Design 2018) competition: “Greenery and gardening have become not just a fad, more a lifestyle. This trend requires appropriate tools, but products on offer have failed to keep up with customer expectations. The manufacturer understood this need perfectly and added the PASTEL product range. The products don’t resemble typical tools. A noble minimalism, organic forms and delicate colours set them apart from others. As they are made from a single piece of durable glass-fibre reinforced composite, they are uniquely durable. The shape also ensures work can be done comfortably.”
