Questions you will Encounter about Bamboo Cutlery

Buying a set of reusable bamboo cutlery is an exciting experience! It's great that you no longer have to rely on single-use plastic cutlery when eating at a street food cart or work canteen, doesn't it? But every new user of bamboo cutlery has some questions to answer before fully enjoying reusable cutlery. Can bamboo cutlery be put in the dishwasher? How long can bamboo tableware last? Can my bamboo tableware be recycled? The following articles will answer these questions for you.

In this article, we'll cover everything you need to know as the proud owner of a reusable cutlery set. We will teach you how to care for your bamboo cutlery, how to clean your wooden tableware, and other common bamboo cutlery problems!

1. Wash your hands with warm water and dish soap

2. Immediately wipe with a dry cloth, then store in a cool/dry place or in a travel case

3. Do not put bamboo cutlery in the dishwasher or soak it for a long time

4. Your bamboo cutlery travel case is machine washable, please wash it regularly to avoid the spread of germs

We're going to say no to that. Although our bamboo cutlery set is durable enough to withstand several heat cycles in the dishwasher, we still don't recommend it. High temperatures can damage the integrity of bamboo and cause your cutlery to shatter. To be safe, avoid using the dishwasher and keep washing your hands.

Our bamboo cutlery set is reusable and should last a long time if taken care of! That being said, everything has an expiration date, which is why it's important to consider recycling, biodegradation, and composting before purchasing a product! Our bamboo tableware is 100% natural and organic, so it's biodegradable, recyclable, and compostable!

We investigated the effects of microwaves on wood and we found that microwaves heat the moisture present in most woods, causing the wood to dry out and sometimes crack. With this in mind, we do not recommend that you put bamboo utensils in the microwave.

Bamboo is often considered a super-sustainable material, but as the survey gained notoriety, some ecologically conscious citizens of the planet say it cannot be considered sustainable because it requires water to grow.

Our view is that bamboo should not be grown on an industrial scale in non-tropical countries. The above eco-citizen is absolutely correct, as bamboo does require a lot of water and sunlight to grow, which would be unsustainable if tried in countries like the UK, France, or Germany!

However, the topography and general landscape of countries such as Vietnam and Indonesia are well suited for sustainable bamboo cultivation. Mountains bathe bamboo in sunlight, and the tropical rainy season provides ample water for industrial-scale planting. While some farms do use water to grow bamboo, we still firmly believe that bamboo is the most sustainable material on the planet! Bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the world and its versatility means it can be used to make anything from bamboo straws to bamboo houses, and of course, it is fully compostable in some cases and recycled in others!

This is a difficult question to answer! Airline policies vary, but most agree that sharp objects are not allowed on planes, and we surmise whether you can bring your bamboo cutlery on vacation is almost entirely at the discretion of airport security.
