KNORK Flatware
Started from an idea at a pizzeria, KNORK Flatware has been making unique, ergonomic, and sturdy utensils for customers for years. Their recent endeavor, the ECO line, features fully compostable (and reusable!) utensils that can withstand use in the microwave and dishwasher, yet break down in an industrial compost facility.
Made from sugarcane and bamboo offcuts from furniture factories, the KNORK utensils and carrying case are unique additions to any picnic, camp out, lunch box, or even use at home.
