Patents Applied For

In early 1997 I started working on a project with Akzo Nobel ,better known for their brand Crown Paints, the purpose of which was to design a product that would become the replacement for their small paint tester bottles commonly referred to as Matchpots.

Eventually we created a replacement which was in essence a Tube full of paint with a Brush at the top. This innovation was tremendously challenging and conducted with extreme secrecy. It was brought to market, and was the project was extremely successful.

Subsequently, I developed the idea much further, and created a completely new product for a completely different application, which was Shaving. The name eventually chosen for this product was the “Trip”
