In 1944 Earl Tupper founded the "Tupperware Plastics Company". This American chemist (from DuPont) was a pioneer in the use of polyethylene for household applications. Two years later, Mr Tupper launched his "Wonderbowl", a "miraculous" bowl with a revolutionary airtight seal, much lighter and sturdier than traditional glass and pottery.
In the early years, the products were for sale in department stores, hardware stores and other shops. But that didn't do justice to the exceptional quality of the Tupperware products. After all, no one took the time to show and explain to consumers the benefits of these airtight and watertight bowls.

In 1948, Vice President Brownie Wise introduced the Tupperware Home Party, a whole new way of bringing the products directly to the consumer. This allowed the many possibilities of the products to be demonstrated in person.
