The Story
The world's fastest-growing renewable
Bamboo is one of the most renewable materials on earth. Some species grow nearly a metre a day, and harvesting does not kill the plant. It regrows from the same root system.
That makes it a low-impact source of strong, lightweight and attractive tableware. We use bamboo for cutlery and serveware that feels premium and composts at the end of its life.
