Graft
Disposable corn cutlery. Impossible to throw them away!

Hunter's comment
Issue:
With the high consumption of meals away from home, plastic cutlery that is used only once is used. Thus achieving a large amount of waste, which are generally thrown down the street. This plastic takes many years to degrade, a problem for the environment.
Solution:
Disposable cutlery made with bioplastic, a material resulting from corn and vegetable mass.
Honestly I find some disposable cutlery beautiful and also friendly to the environment. Perfect.!
Features:
- Beautiful design in the shape of vegetables and fruits.
A celery stem for example, serves as handle for the fork; a petal of artichoke then becomes the bowl of spoon.
Completely biodegradable.
Printed in 3D. Which makes them more economical than conventional disposable cutlery.
These are so cute, that the question is:
After using them. Would you throw them in the trash?

If we look at the numbers affecting sea life dying because of the plastic, it's huge. There are some shopping stores which has quit using plastic bags to benefit the environment. Graft is a useful and green product for both our environment and sea life. Firstly this product will be reused many times and if it gets disposed of, it will not harm our locale.

Wow am impressive by this product mate...yes without doubt lots of cutlery are made with material that are hard to decompose thereby causing a huge problem for the environment when disposed. This will certainly change that

I see creativity here and love the idea of this product but are they of good quality? (yes they look it but still disposable) I know so many China products and their ways of catching their customers with beautiful designs but quality is missing. It's a nice product but personally I would use them to beautify my kitchen not for.......... (still using it but not the actual purpose)

Awesome idea, we use far too much single use plastic in our everyday lives. Its also good that they are "Completely biodegradable" because they look edible, and when I am hungry if I accidentally on purpose eat my knife and folk I can just poop it out :D

First, they look awesome! Really like the design of them. Besides the fact I think it is the right direction and also it is pretty obvious it is better than use normal plastic cutlery this is still not the solution. Many people just have the wrong impression when using items like this. They are just not that environmental friendly like many people think and also they need a bunch of years to decompose completely.

This product is PLA bio-degradable plastic, which can decompose in 3-6 months (depending on moisture/conditions). It's also considered safe for use with foods.
The other type of "bio-degradable" plastic (which I think you're referring to) is ABS - which does take many years to decompose (and I don't think is safe for use with foods).

Great solution that would reduce the problem of plastic pollution in our environment. Hopefully all plastic products would become biodegradable in the next few years

Chinese are amazing when it comes to such creativity. This is a clever thinking to shape the tableware like salad ingredients in a cheeky nod to the utensils’ biodegradable source material. Whether it gets accepted by the audience to replace the traditional cutlery or not, it still remains a very unique product.
Epic job @pialejoana.

This is a great improvement over generic plastic, disposable cutlery, which is not only a big threat for the environment because of pollutions from creating it, but also from the plastic becoming plastic waste.
However, it's important to remember that biodegradable is not really environmentally-friendly by itself. What this means is that the plastic will eventually break down by itself when thrown away, even tough some biplastics won't be able to naturally break down in colder areas. Anyway, this does not say anything about the pollution from producing the goods, and most bioplastic products still produce a good amount of greenhouse gases when manufactured.
What I'm trying to say is that while this is a good step in the right direction, we still need even better solutions if we want to both reduce emissions and plastic waste. This only solves one of these two major issues with plastic.

I think disposable table ware made of bioplastic has a great future. Just think about all the fast food chains and the gigantic waste that they are producing. If everything would be made out of bio plastic than the waste problem could be reduced significantly.
When I looked into the homepage I wanted to find the shop to buy some but unfortunately this was just a show case project. I don't know if somebody actually sells this tableware but on the HP you can't purchase it.
Also I think the Homepage hasn't been updated lately since the project began in 2013.
Good Hunt but too bad that this product can't be purchased!

Hi @pialejoana, I always wait for your hunt because you always come up with some out of the box stuff. And that's why your hunts get top places. OMG today's hunt is no doubt a wonderful search. I can't believe that such type of cutlery is available in this world. It is so cute and really great for use of humans according to the health and atmosphere point of view. Totally agreed with this statement:
Thanks a lot for always giving us a chance to spend sometime on reading, viewing and enjoying your awesome stuff. Keep it up and always stay blessed.

Really it is very useful because the plastic cannot degrade in to the soil and some kind of pollution occurs. It is environment friendly and can be mixed with soil and increase organic matter in the soil which improves fertility. Great hunt , i love it.

Great design for this sustainable cutlery. On the Graft website, there is no price. Is it only a project or are they looking for funding to start production? Because it will be a commercial success.
Thanks for sharing it @pialejoana

The fact that 3D printing is becoming a lot bigger in this day and age, that is a big help to grow this sort of initiative and use of better products. Biodegradable cutlery would save on so much plastic waste and litter while making the world a better place.

This cutlery really looks great, your hunting is a very surprising discovery. I am very surprised that this type of cutlery made of bioplastics is available in this world. I think it is a good solution according to the environment and is much better than using plastic cutlery.
Wow your hunting is very impressive. @pialejoana

It’s too cute to dispose them. Personally, I will wash and reuse them again. Having said that, this is really a great idea. Would love to give a set as a Christmas present.

See what I was thinking about such things as I was washing some dishes and teacups. I was thinking that cutleries and utensils should be like disposable and environment should not be affected and here I came across the product you shared. The graft is such a big hit solution. In this era of technology you just have to think anything/problem, you definitely will find the solution.
Yes, you are tight @pialejoana you can through them away as they are so cute and colorful. Thank you for sharing. Great Hunt!

These are a great solution to pollution and they also look very cute. I wish I could have them in my kitchen.
I believe 3D technology is one of those innovations that have become a game changer, it has so many applications and in a lot of fields.
As always, Great Hunt @pialejoana!
