Ploom modelTwo Awarded with 2014 International Red Dot Design Award for Excellence in Product Design

SAN FRANCISCO--()--Ploom, Inc. has been honored with the Red Dot Design Award, a renowned international distinction for high design quality, for their innovative tobacco vaporizer, the Ploom modelTwo.

The Ploom modelTwo system, consisting of the Ploom modelTwo device and Ploom pods, is revolutionizing the concept of tobacco consumption. The modelTwo heats individual pods of premium, authentic loose-leaf pipe tobacco to the point of vaporization, resulting in a cleaner tobacco experience. Similar to Nespresso, Ploom provides an end-to-end consumer experience in a convenient, portable package.

“It’s a high honor to receive this award,” says Ploom CEO James Monsees, “With the Ploom modelTwo and its sister product, the Pax loose leaf vaporizer, we are recreating the ritual and elegance of smoking for consumers, giving them an entirely new experience with all of the things they like about tobacco and none of the things they don't. We’re very proud to be recognized for the design of this product.”
