About Ston Aroomiinhalaator

Ston pakub teile tervislikku ja teadlikku puhkust alternatiivina suitsetamisele ja joomisele. Nosigner andis seadmele nimeks Breather, viidates selle ainulaadsele tähelepanelikule kogemusele. Kuigi ülesehitus sarnaneb elektroonilisele sigaretile, saab nii õhuvoolu kui ka muid tegureid reguleerides kogeda midagi sügavamale hingetõmbele lähedasemat. See on vahend, mis muudab kahjuliku pausi sigarettide suitsetamisest vaimselt ja füüsiliselt tervislikuks.

Unique Properties
“ston” provides you a healthy and mindful break, as an alternative to smoking and drinking.
We named the device BREATHER, as a reference to the unique mindful experience it provides. Although the structure is similar to an electronic cigarette, by adjusting the flow of air as well as other factors, you can experience something closer to a deep breath. This is the tool to change a harmful break with smoking cigarettes into a healthy one for mentally and physically.
Production Technology
We took so much time for the appearance of the product. “ston” is a stone-shaped, organically curved, stone-moulded device made of a one-piece aluminium enclosure thanks to a technique called metal squeezing. It is a unique and difficult technique that allows the aluminium to be squeezed to expand inward beyond 180 degrees, with no parting lines. This is all thanks to the high-level production control technology that Japan has developed.
Inspiration
"ston" is a healthy inhalation device that allows you to inhale caffeine and GABA. The lighting pattern also helps regulate the rhythm of the breath. Similar to meditation in Zen or yoga, it helps the mind find balance and be calm, peacefully breathing in and out. Smoking is not only harmful to your body but also bad for the environment since you would have cigarette butts after you smoked it. “ston” offers a special experience that can never be had with a cigarette break.
