Anthony Harrison-Griffin
Design Director / Founder
I'm passionate about innovation in all areas of technology, manufacturing and integration into finished product. With years of experience of bringing products to life, I understand how having a great idea is very much the easy part. Bringing it into market is the real challenge. One has to have an acceptance and understanding for the need of research and development, through the collaboration of minds and embracing the values of our ever changing and developing world. For so many years I have endulged myself with the almost endless possibilities of of the use of plastics. Yet today I find myself in complete u-turn with eco-stainability foremost in mind.
