Biography
French entrepreneur, a manufacturer of kitchen and household appliances. Mantelet was a relatively modest French manufacturer who happened to come up with an idea one day while watching his wife mash potatoes with a fork. He devised a vegetable shredder and registered the patent on 16 February 1932, 2:50 PM, Paris. The kitchen utensil was an immediate success and after the war Mantelet developed several household appliances. When it came to commercialize his electrical coffee grinder, he changed the name of his company from Société Moulin-Légumes to "Moulin X" or Moulinex. Mantelet died on 19 January 1991, Paris.
