Tom Pellereau invented the Stylfile nail-care product range featured on the BBC's Dragons' Den.
Stylfile was designed to make nail filing easier by using a curved shape that follows the natural contour of a fingernail. Pellereau presented the invention in the den and became associated with one of the programme's notable product-development stories.
The product was not simply a conventional straight nail file with a new label. Its distinctive form was intended to improve control and reach, especially around the sides of the nail. The pitch also demonstrated how a relatively small household idea could be presented as a scalable consumer product.
Viewers can confuse Pellereau with Shaun Pulfrey, creator of Tangle Teezer, or Rob Law, creator of Trunki. Those entrepreneurs pitched different products. Tom Pellereau is the specific inventor linked with Stylfile.
