Peter Bindner invented The Longest Beach Dinner Event

Midsummer bonfire on DVD – SOLD OUT

Peter Bindner says, "The idea took shape over some years: I found that it very often rains on Saint John’s Eve, a strong tradition, where Danes light bonfires to celebrate midsummer. We faced the same problem every year: what do we do on Saint John’s Eve? What about the bonfire? Everything depended on the weather. At the same time, there were other people in Denmark who did not have access to a bonfire, including those who live in urban apartments.

“You always had to decide who would collect wood for the bonfire and who would clean up afterwards," says Peter Bindner. "I came up with this great idea, a very simple solution.”

“I have a cottage and a field. I went out there and built myself a large midsummer bonfire and recorded it on my video camera. Then I got permission to use the original "Midsummer Song" by Aksel Schiøtz.

The Midsummer Bonfire DVD was a reality,” says Peter Bindner. "Actually, it never crossed my mind that a drought might cancel our midsummer bonfires in Denmark. This was the case in 2018, a record-breaking long, dry summer. Every year since then, we have sold many thousands of copies. This year, sales exploded. The Midsummer Bonfire DVD was totally sold out by Thursday night," states Peter Bindner. "If the weather is good, I still prefer a real bonfire with the atmosphere, which is always fantastic. It’s a beautiful Danish tradition. With the DVD, people all over Denmark can experience this tradition in their own living room," concludes Peter Bindner.

Easy Ashtray avoid cigarette butts in the wild

Peter Bindner was annoyed by all the cigarette butts floating around in the natural environment, on streets and in alleys.

Peter Bindner invented Easy Ashtray. You keep Easy Ashtray in your pocket or bag. The seal shuts off oxygen so that nothing burns in your pocket and there is no smell of smoke. Easy Ashtray can hold up to 10 cigarette butts. It is a disposable ashtray made from recycled materials. It is very easy to open and close. You just pop this compact product into any ordinary jacket pocket or small bag.

“Håndværker Allergi”, a funny Danish book (translates “Allergic to workmen”)

“Håndværker Allergi” is a fun book Peter Bindner wrote about the challenge of having artisans working at your home. The book also contains other people's various funny episodes and crazy experiences with craftsmen. When you tried it yourself just once, you never forget it. “Håndværker Allergi” caught on. The book was a huge success and was completely sold out.

The Secret bed - a real James Bond gadget

Peter Bindner developed a very special bed, a secret bed that looks like a good old fashioned English bookshelf, complete with antique books. Just a click of a remote control and the bed rolls down ready for bedtime - just like a gadget in a James Bond movie. Peter has this amazing bed in his own home. It will be launched commercially in 2024.
