About Us
Pedestal produces an expanding range of pottery equipment focusing on practicality, durability and sustainability. Our strong ties with the industrial ecosystem in Istanbul gives us access to a variety of resources and manufacturing techniques. Our understanding of innovation involves developing products that potters will enjoy for the longest time possible by combining the right materials and processes.
We work with retail partners to make our products accessible to potters in different locations. We have no direct consumer sales activities, and prioritize R&D activities to continue bringing novelty to the world of ceramics. We are very much interested in receiving feedback from our partners about local needs and creating or modifying products to satisfy them
Responsibilities
Towards Retail Partners
Quality Standardization: All Pedestal products undergo careful quality control before being packaged. We are transparent about limitations of materials and minor irregularities that may occur. We supply our retail partners with products that they can resell with peace of mind and minimal customer complaints/returns.
Flexible Production: Our easy access to materials and production processes means we can modify products, receive custom orders and prepare small or mid-sized batches.
Manufacturer Prices: All of our products are manufactured by us or our solution partners. Thanks to that we are able to offer reasonable prices that leave room for retailer margins
Towards the Planet
Material Selection: We prefer raw materials that give our products extended lifespans and cause minimal waste. We work to minimize our use of plastic and opt for recycled or reusable packaging.
Lean Manufacturing: Thanks to our flexibility in manufacturing, we do not need to produce in large batches or keep stock. We prototype rapidly and produce upon order.We do our best to efficiently use raw materials and reduce waste.
Towards End Users
Ease of Use and Care: We know working with clay sometimes can be a hassle. So we develop products that require minimum effort while using and cleaning.
