À Propos

Hello!

I’m Carla, founder of Pole Factory.

It all began in late 2020, when I started practicing pole dance seriously. I was searching for products that were high-quality, stylish, original, and truly suited to my training… but I kept finding the same items everywhere, never quite what I sometimes saw on international pole stars.

I spent countless hours browsing the web, testing grips, outfits, accessories, and equipment, until I finally discovered a few hidden gems. Meanwhile, I was getting more professional: teaching classes, entering small competitions, sharing videos online… and soon the questions started pouring in: “Where’s your outfit from?”, “Which grip do you use?”, “Where did you get your pole?” That’s when it hit me: there was no central platform that made these unique, less-visible products easier to find and access.

So, in September 2024, Pole Factory was born: a space that promotes high-quality brands, brings international products closer to home, and supports pole dancers in their search for novelty and style.

But for me, Pole Factory is more than just a shop.

With my background in philosophy and a thesis on the political dimension of fashion, I’ve seen how clothing – just like pole – is a language. It shapes our identity, expresses intention, and explores the connection between body, mind, and the world.

Pole Factory is my way of giving artists a tool of expression: a vocabulary made of fabrics, design, and style – to embody an idea and transform it into an image.
