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 closure, which was much lighter and stronger than traditional glass and pottery.

In the early years, the products were for sale in department stores, hardware stores and other shops. But in this way the exceptional quality of the Tupperware products did not come into its own. After all, nobody took the time to show and explain to consumers the benefits of these airtight and waterproof bowls.

In 1948, Vice President Brownie Wise introduced the Tupperware Home Party, a whole new way of bringing products directly to consumers. In this way, the many possibilities of the products could be personally demonstrated.
