About

Aquilez (derived from the legendary Greek warrior) is a product design and development firm headquartered in Sugar Land, Texas. We work with corporations to commercialize products from housewares to toys to backyard grilling and a little bit of everything in between. We love to create and have a lot of fun in the process.

Aquilez is the brainchild of founder and entrepreneur, TJ Wardlow. His philosophy on life is simple: “Keep moving forward.” With that in mind, he turned his hobby of creating and improving products into a business. To date, we’ve collaborated with a top novelty toy company and an industry leading housewares manufacturer.

Conceptualized on a small street in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, our roots as an outlier continue to this day and remain a source of pride within our company. We still keep a design studio on the same street, maintaining our outsider’s perspective.
