Polder Products Wins Two 2019 Good Design Awards

Viper Tongs

​Polder Products has received the Chicago Athenaeum Good Design Award for excellence in product design, quality and innovation on two of their 2019 product introductions.

Polder received the awards for their Viper BBQ Tongs and Stowaway Iron Rest products. Both items employ clean, sophisticated design merged with problem solving user benefits. The products also deliver in elevating the consumer experience with these tasks by offering a more effective process.

The Viper BBQ Tongs utilize a shovel base lower-halve and pincer 'teeth' top-halve to allow for greater detail control while grilling. The larger sized grips also give greater hand comfort over time when managing multiple items on the grill.

The Stowaway Iron Rest offers users the ability to safely place a hot iron while adjusting clothes, and then store the iron and board together directly after ironing - no more need to wait for the iron to cool down.

"We are thrilled to be recognized with Good Design awards for these two new products,” states Kerry Cooper, Executive Vice President at Polder. “Solving problems in the consumer experience is our main goal, and these awards help validate our ongoing effort towards making better products for daily tasks.”

Both products are currently available at retail across the U.S. and they can also be found on the brands website at www.polder.com
