Tupperware

Transparant

Tupperware products
In 1945 the American Earl Tupper was the first to put a series of plastic polyethylene containers on the market. They came with airtight lids and therefore caused a revolution in the preservation of food at home. The designs were constantly adapted to new trends in shape and colour, and a series of technical innovations and particularly the idea of organizing Tupperware parties at the peoples¹s homes made Tupperware a real success. Discover the history ot this kitchen revolution.
