Inspired by the infinite imagination of children, Trixie designs a world that encourages creativity and development. With Glotec, Studio Achoo and Dioss by their side, they wanted to add an innovative piece of retail furniture that fits their vision: to stimulate imagination in a creative way, with sustainability guaranteed.
Children's imaginations brought to life
The outcome? "Trixie Rockets," a series of display units that allow for a stylish and inspirational showcase of products. Designed to mirror space rockets, these pieces are not just functional but also stand out in any retail setting.
Glotec takes pride in associating with brands like Trixie, who are guided by strong values and goals. Valérie Dumon, Trixie's purchaser, states, "Our choice of Glotec was influenced by their parallel design and quality vision, local Belgian production, and their retail industry expertise. Despite technical hurdles, Glotec consistently offered solutions and maintained transparent, effective communication."

What we did
Concept, Engineering, Prototyping, Production, Roll-out & logistics, Service & installation
A team effort focused on functionality and efficiency
The design phase was a collaborative venture. With designer Bart from Studio Achoo, we conceived a concept that balances appeal with practicality and efficiency. Every element of the Trixie Rockets, from dimensions and materials to packaging and shipping, was meticulously planned to minimize costs for Trixie.
Bart Van Houcke of Studio Achoo comments on the design journey, "Studio Achoo had a distinct vision for the Trixie Rockets. Finding a manufacturer who could bring our concept to life without altering it was crucial. Glotec was the ideal match." The prototypes underwent rigorous testing for stability, size, functionality, and more, culminating in the finalized product.
Detailed and quality printing by Dioss
Post-design, Dioss Print Solutions was tasked with creating custom visuals for the Trixie Rockets. Magnets and strategically placed perforations on the frame allow for secure, appealing attachment of signs, eliminating any risk of them coming loose.
Arjan D'haene, co-director of Dioss, commended Glotec's innovative methods: "Their pursuit of novel solutions, alongside their production expertise, led to an outstanding final product."
A successful launch
The Trixie Rockets are now featured in numerous stores across Benelux and France, displaying a variety of items from backpacks to utensils. Their dynamic, adaptable design makes them a perfect fit for both small and large retail spaces and trade shows. We eagerly anticipate the future impact of the Trixie Rockets!
Special thanks to Valérie from Trixie, whose exceptional project management was key to this success.
