The Problem with Plastic Cutlery
Single-use plastic cutlery is used for minutes and lasts for centuries. In the UK alone, over 1.1 billion pieces are used every year — and less than 10% are recycled.
Why Bamboo Is the Perfect Material
Bamboo is one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth, reaching maturity in just 3–5 years without pesticides or fertilisers. It's naturally antibacterial, incredibly strong, and lightweight.
Our Bamboo Cutlery Collection
Our Reusable Bamboo Cutlery Set includes a fork, knife, spoon, and chopsticks in a compact carry case. Our Custom Bamboo Cutlery Set lets you choose your colour and shape. Our Bamboo Travel Cutlery Set slips into any bag.
How to Care for Your Bamboo Cutlery
Hand wash with mild soap and warm water, and dry immediately. Occasionally rub with coconut oil to keep it beautiful for years.
Small actions, repeated daily, change the world. And they start with you. 🌿
