Summer Season is Officially Here

After a very successful year, filled with international design awards for the launch of their new sleeping mat range, outdoor accessories brand, Sea to Summit is looking forward to expand further and bring even more fun, comfort and clever designs to outdoor enthusiasts and travellers around the world.

To kick off the summer season in the Philippines, Sea to Summit’s International Sales Manager Ryan Secrest paid us a visit. Secrest visited the Philippines for three days to meet the local Sea to Summit team and to run training sessions on the brand’s upcoming product range: the X-Sets. The X-Sets are an expansion of the existing product category X-Series, a colorful product range of collapsible cups, mugs, plates and bowls. By introducing the X-Sets Sea to Summit added cooking pots and even a kettle to this range. All X-Pot models can hold a number of other X-Series items inside (therefore X-Sets) which makes them fully featured cooking systems at the smallest possible size.

Sea to Summit has been known to create lightweight, compact and functional products for 25 years, since co-founder Tim Macartney-Snape was the first person to ascend Mt Everest from sea level on his “Sea to Summit” Expedition in 1990. Celebrating their 25th anniversary the company is proud of the fact that their core values have not changed. Still based in Perth, Western Australia, where the company was founded, Sea to Summit consists of an obsessive culture of design perfectionists that develops ingenious, functionally beautiful products, with a “no worries” typical Australian attitude.

Secrest is also excited to visit the first exclusive Sea to Summit store, opened by their Philippine distributor PRIMER Group of Companies in Cebu about one year ago: “It is fantastic to see all our products displayed in one store. We worked closely with PRIMER Group to make sure everything is well presented and fits in with Sea to Summit’s Corporate Identity, they did an amazing job! It is not always easy to give our products enough attention in stores, a lot of them are just so small, therefore we love this store concept that enhances all the important details and we hope it is the start for many more Sea to Summit concept stores worldwide”.
