Pylones is French Like the Eiffel Tower

Last week, the SoMoms were invited to visit the Pylones store in Glorietta. Each time i walk past the branch in Powerplant, i am immediately drawn and are often tempted to go inside and check out their products. I often think of Pylones as a colorful wasteland. But truth is, their items are not only cute, they're also very useful!

Here are some facts about Pylones that i learned during our recent visit:

• First things first - Pylones is pronounced as "Pee-loans"
• It is a French word meaning 'A steel tower supporting high-tension wires' or 'A large structure or group of structures marking an entrance or approach' ...and yes, the Eiffel Tower is a Pylone!
• Pylones started in Paris in 1985 and opened their first store in 1988
• The first Pylones product was the animal latex bracelet

• The barrels used for display in the stores are actually containers of the latex (raw materials) used.  

• Pylones was started by a French couple and is still 100% owned by the founding family to this day.
• All products are designed in France and manufactured in both France and China. The Pylones Group is very involved in the production process in both locations.

 

• The China factory has obtained BSCI and ISO 9001 certifications in 2013. They are very conscious of maintaining high standards and ensuring all materials used are safe and non-toxic
