PATO introduces babies and toddlers playfully to a healthy oral care routine and provides pain relief to them. Its design is inspired by chewing sticks, while its shape derives from basic geometric forms that remark its simplicity. The use of different materials and the elements’ rotation enable babies to intuitively decide which end suits them best.
Statement by the Jury
The three-dimensional form of this teething ring fosters playfulness while promoting development. The jury was particularly impressed by the flexible elements.
