Design brief
IXL has developed a revolutionary cooking technique that facilitates super fast preparation of healthy and tasty meals based on natural ingredients. For example, cod can be poached within seconds and meat is stewed in less than a minute.
WeLLDesign was closely involved in this innovative product development, and provided concept, design and engineering of this series-produced product, including prototyping.
The concept
Tijdens een creatieve workshop met IXL werd de scope van het project vastgelegd, uitgaande van het door IXL gebouwde Proof of Principle. Eisen waren een homogene verwarming van het voedsel, verbrandingsrisico verminderen en een goede warmtespreiding om energiereductie te waarborgen.
The concept was translated into an attractive and innovative design, suitable for professional kitchens: a high-tech small saucepan with compact docking station. During the engineering process, strict hygiene and safety requirements were taken into account.
The complete concept will stir up a revolution in professional kitchens, and eventually make its entry in the consumer market. In 2011, the e-cooker was awarded the prestigious Food Valley Award.
De NutriPulse heeft in 2011 de Food Valley Award gewonnen.
