GOURDO’S PRESENTS TERRAILLON KITCHEN SCALES














Specialty houseware store Gourdo’s recently gathered members of the media at Global Academy for a briefing on Terraillon kitchen scales.

Founded in the French Alps in 1946, Terraillon has always been at the forefront of technology, designing and making appliances that anticipate consumer expectations and exceed their requirements.  Its products include kitchen scales, bathroom scales, water filtration jugs and cartridges.  The brand also carries a baby care range and products for health and well-being.

               
 Recognized around the globe for product design and its manufacturing processes, Terraillon’s commitment to quality is unwavering.  The Terraillon headquarters in Paris, France, houses international teams who work in collaboration with researchers based in France and Asia, designing products that constantly improve precision and user’s comfort. Production is divided between different countries in Europe and Asia and items are exported to more than 80 countries in five continents through subsidiaries in the UK, USA, Hong Kong, Italy and Germany.

The best-selling kitchen scale in France, every Terraillon unit is equipped with a liquid measurement facility and an add ‘n’ weigh tare function -- which allows a scale to account for the weight of the container and display only the weight of what it holds.

Aside from being easy-to-use and precise, the Terraillon kitchen scales are faithful to the avant-garde spirit of the brand. Aware of how consumers are extremely sensitive to the aesthetics of objects that are part of their everyday life, Terraillon is dedicated to designing products where function and form really make people want to use them. The combination of technology and design is apparent in every Terraillon item.

One such example is the Terraillon Halo 3kg model which has a stylish European chrome finish, available in green, white, red, and black. It boasts of an elevated glass platform which optimizes the surface for weight measurement and a large display screen for convenient reading.  Measurements can be reflected in kilogram (kg) or pounds (lb).
 
During the Gourdo’s event, Global Academy pastry arts instructor, chef Angela Ventura, shared a cake recipe, baked bread, and whipped up pretty macarons in front of the audience, emphasizing the importance of being meticulous in baking and stressing the significance of having the right tools and equipment for accurate portions.

Kelvin Mow, Commercial and Operations Director of Terraillon visiting from the Hong Kong offices announced that the Macaron line will soon be available in the Philippines. Available in six bright and fun colors namely lilac, prune, raspberry, pistachio, chocolate and grenadine, the kitchen scales also have large LCD screens as well as an integrated handle for easy storage.

Terraillon also carries mechanical kitchen scales and timers.

The entire line is available at Gourdo’s Trinoma, Gateway, The Fort, Glorietta 4, Promenade Greenhills, and Serendra; Living Well at The Podium and Mall of Asia; and World Market in Greenbelt 5 and Alabang Town Center. For more information, log on to www.gourdos.com.
