Rigi Candle Raclette— – more than raclette
In collaboration with RIGI BAHNEN AG, we had the opportunity to develop a candle-powered raclette set that is a faithful replica of the original Arth-Rigi-Bahn railcar. From its distinctive look and wooden handle to the matching serving spoon and case, every detail was carefully coordinated.
The result is far more than just a normal promotional item. The Rigi Raclette is a great example of what’s possible with custom-designed products. The shape, colors, materials, details, and packaging can all be tailored to turn a product into a true brand ambassador—authentic, surprising, and unmistakable.
Merchandising is particularly effective when the brand and the product merge into a single concept. This creates something that isn’t simply given away, but is enjoyed, displayed, and remembered.
An award-winning product
This product inspired more than just us and RIGI BAHNEN AG. In 2025, the candle raclette won the TOUCH Award in the “Custom Product of the Year” category. What makes this recognition even more special is that the winner was chosen by public vote.
For us at Pandinavia, this award is a valuable affirmation of what we believe in: good branded merchandise should stand on its own. It should surprise, evoke emotions, and bring a brand to life in a way that traditional promotional items rarely can.
That’s exactly what the Rigi Candle Raclette achieves. It combines a well-known Swiss culinary tradition with an equally iconic mountain railway and transforms both into a product with high brand recognition.
