About Tupperware

Earl Silas Tupper (1907-1983).

Tupperware (plastic container with airtight lid) was invented by Earl Silas Tupper. Tupper was a New Hampshire tree surgeon and plastics innovator, who began experimenting with polyethylene, a new material used primarily for insulation, radar, and radio equipment. He patented the Tupperware seal in 1947. Tupper joined Brownie Wise and introduced "Tupperware Parties" to market the product, a unique way of marketing directly to homemakers.

 

By a two-step process of invention, Earl S. Tupper created one of the most practical items of Americana till date, the airtight plastic food container that still bears his name.

 

Brownie Wise ( 1913–1992 ) was a pioneering American saleswoman largely responsible for the success of Tupperware through her development of the "party plan" system of marketing.
