The most famous burp in design history and top product quality for over 60 years: Tupperware has been awarded the highest honorary distinction in the design world - the "red dot: design team of the year 2009".
Tupperware's design team, lead by Vice President of Global Design, Susan Perkins, has consistently created best-in-class, innovative products which are showcased around the world.
With the title "red dot: design team of the year" the red dot annually pays tribute to a design team that has distinguished itself through continuously innovative design and has thus set new standards.
Previous winners of the "design team of the year" title include the teams of Bose, BMW, LG Electronics, adidas, Pininfarina, Nokia, Apple, Siemens and frogdesign.
The festive awards presentation of the "red dot award: product design 2009" including the tribute to the Tupperware design team will take place on 29 June 2009 in the Essen opera house, the Aalto-Theater.
The Tupperware World Wide Design Team is the "red dot: design team of the year 2009".
For more than 60 years, the company has pursued a unique design philosophy, which has been embraced all across the globe.
Tupperware is universally recognisable, with 90 per cent brand awareness.
The simple, colourful products, accompanied by the signature seals, have become characteristic of the Tupperware brand and follow a similar iconographic style since company founder Earl Silas Tupper created the first designs in the 1950s.
