small, smart, simple ...

From the first idea to the final Y-ply product, the guideline has always been"make it simple".

However, making it simple is certainly one of the most difficult exercises because the product must combine minimalism with elegance and because simplicity must reinforce the practical qualities of the product.

That is the reason why the design of Y-ply was entrusted to a team well known in France for their methodology and competence in industrial design: Fritsch Partners Agency

The agency's expertise has often been awarded design prizes, in particular in 2007 with three prizes awarded by "L'observateur du Design".

Y-ply was awarded:

2009 Promotional Gift Award - Germany

2008 Gold Medal - British Invention Show

2007 Silver Medal - Concours Lépine Paris
