FLORINGO GMBH
TERRY TOWELLING TO TEST AND FEEL
Exhibition visitors who were inquisitively holding a towel in their hands
– this could be observed at the Floringo GmbH stand. The reason: the
terry towelling specialist had invited visitors to solve a special puzzle. The
task was to determine the correct weight (in grams) of a sample in its new
Floringo towel collection. In order to come up with the right answer, the
German company made a soft, plump sample available to test at its stand.
What’s more, the Floringo team was at hand to answer questions about
yarn, pile, technique and finishing. A puzzle which the exhibition visitors
were eager to solve. The second activity, whereby visitors to the stand were
asked to find a name for the promising newly launched product, was also
well received. No wonder, given that the terry towelling specialist from Obersöchering in Bavaria not only hosted a fun and exciting
challenge, but also offered attractive prizes. The “name giver” will be awarded a terry towelling voucher to the value of € 500.
Those who were able to guess the correct weight can look forward to receiving one of ten towelling vouchers to the value of € 50.
All in all, stand activities which drew lots of attention and created a great atmosphere. www.floringo.de <
SHTOX PRODUCTION UG
MAGICAL GLASSES
Visitors to the 50th PSI are sure to have noticed the stand in Hall 11 hosted by the company
Shtox Production UG. Three ladies, dressed completely in silver, amazed visitors
by making glasses spin without any sign of effort, almost defying the laws of physics. Yet
the story of the innovative glass idea is a short one. The Russian designer Evgeny Bushkovskiy
observed that patrons of pubs and bars constantly play with their glasses, turning
them back and forth while relaxing with friends. This gave him the idea to produce a glass
which turns on its own. The development of the magical and now patented glass began in
2009. The product won the red dot award in the same year, though it took some time until
it was ready to be released onto the market. A big challenge was finding a partner who
was able to implement the complicated manufacturing technology. The company Nachtmann
ultimately provided the solution. The PSI in Düsseldorf certainly proved to be a big
success for Shtox, as sales manager Viktoria Dick declares. Massive interest was shown in
the glasses with a twist. www.shtox.com <

NESTLER-MATHO
PSI UNBEATABLE AS A CONTACT FORUM
The 50th PSI in Düsseldorf was again a great success for Nestler-matho,
one of the leading importers of design products. Numerous highly constructive
conversations at the fair confirmed the effectiveness of the concept
of the company Nestler-matho from Baden-Baden, Germany. “The personal
contact with our partners in the promotional products trade is particularly
important to us”, says managing director Karin Pfrommer. The PSI
Trade Show has therefore always been an important marketing instrument
for presenting our new products.” www.nestler-matho.de <
