With love for inventing and building, Roby, a full-time chemistry and biology instructor, started Erlenmeyer Designs, a groundbreaking business that combines creativity and scientific aptitude. With a passion for making and creating things, Roby invests in tools like laser cutters, a wide format printer, and an X-Carve CNC machine to bring his ideas to life.

Innovative and Unique Designs

Roby’s background as a scientist and educator influences his ideas for science-related merchandise, but he also makes one-of-a-kind, custom pieces of art, including bathymetric maps, jewellery, signage, and puzzles. The uniqueness of his designs comes from the fact that he does not use premade templates and instead draws, creates, or modifies pictures in Adobe Illustrator before feeding them into a laser cutter. This approach allows him to create designs that are original and challenging, setting Erlenmeyer Designs apart from other manufacturers.

Participation in Local Markets

Erlenmeyer Designs participates in Scattered Seeds, a local market, and plans to continue to grow with its original designs, incorporating both the laser and CNC router to create even more unique items. With a focus on the process of creating something unique and inspiring, it’s not just about the sale for Roby; it’s about the art of creation.

Inspiring the Next Generation

Roby’s dedication to creation extends to his mission of getting kids involved in the design, producing, and creating process as part of their education. Erlenmeyer Designs is more than just a company; it’s a vehicle for inspiring the next generation of inventors and creators. Roby’s commitment to novelty, creativity, and accuracy distinguishes Erlenmeyer Designs, and his mission to inspire and educate sets this business apart from others.

Roby’s dedication to the creative process and his mission to inspire and educate the next generation of inventors and creators make Erlenmeyer Designs more than just a company. 

With a commitment to novelty, creativity, and accuracy, Erlenmeyer Designs is a business that is well worth checking out. Visit their website at https://www.erlenmeyerdesigns.ca/ to see their products and learn more about their story.
