Production Technology: Air Kiss is made of borosilicate glass, reduces odor residue
and more durable with its thermal shock resistant. The airtight lid is made of food grade silicone, compacts with 18/8 stainless steel in central touching area. All parts are recyclable and dish washer safe, easy to clean.
Design Challenge: The soft touch lid of Air Kiss has many wavy circle down the bottom, which is specially designed to absorb glass manufacturing tolerances. Compacts with 18/8 stainless steel in central touching area for reducing odor residue, and increases the stability on maximising the one-way valve function.

The lid comes in an elegant shape, and many wavy circles on the bottom around the edge. When pushing the lid into canister, it squeezes extra air out to keep coffee bean fresh for longer! With an ergonomics convex top on the lid, which is specially designed to put a finger tip in then lift it up in just 1 second!
Research: The first step of brewing a cup of coffee is getting the coffee bean, it could take up to 1 min from opening the coffee bag, grab the coffee bean, squeezing the extra air, to folding the bag back.

With vacuum coffee bean storage, which loses the vacuum in few hours or days depending on its sealing quality.

General food canisters increase the coffee bean in contact with the oxygen and moisture, whilst the amount of coffee bean in the canister decreases.

Air Kiss kicks all above hassle away, with a finger tip to lift the lid in just 1 second, and 1 second to seal it airtight. Keep the coffee bean fresher for longer!
Inspiration: From the second a coffee bag is opened, the coffee gets in touch with oxygen and starts to stale. We deliver the natural way to keep just enough air to let coffee bean breath, extend its freshness to hold the flavour and aromatics longer.

"Air Kiss" aims to simplize the coffee making procedure, no more coffee bag folding frustration. With your finger tips, 1 second to push the lid into the "Air Kiss" canister, and 1 second to lift the lid!
Project Duration: Air Kiss will be launched in 2023
Operation Flow: Have had enough hassle each time opening the coffee bag?
Air Kiss is designed to grab the coffee bean in 1 second, and with a challenging task to keep the bean fresh and longer!

Its elegant curve lid goes into the canister and kisses the bean, no matter how much bean left in the canister it can always squeeze the extra air and away from moisture.

The ergonomics convex top on the lid is specially designed to put a finger tip in, with the turning angle to lift it up in just 1 second!

3 sizes for your choice, and can be stacked to save space!
