Ergonomic Designs for Better Grip and Control
As we age, fine motor skills can shift, making standard utensils difficult to manage. Our range focuses on high-contrast colours and slip-resistant materials to ensure a secure hold, even with limited hand strength.
Weighted Cutlery for Tremor Management
For those living with Parkinsons or essential tremors, weighted utensils provide the necessary stability to reduce spills. These solid, balanced pieces help steady the hand, allowing for a smoother transition from plate to mouth.
Large-Handle and Built-Up Utensils
Arthritis can make closing your fingers around a thin handle painful. Our built-up handles require less grip force, significantly reducing joint strain during use. These are ideal for individuals with restricted finger movement or weakened grip strength.
Key Features of Our Adaptive Range
- Soft-Touch Silicone: Non-slip surfaces that stay secure even when wet.
- Angled Spoons and Forks: Minimises the need for wrist rotation, perfect for those with limited range of motion.
- Dishwasher Safe: Durable materials designed for easy cleaning and long-term hygiene.
- Travel-Friendly Options: Lightweight sets that allow you to dine out with confidence.
Independence in the Kitchen and Beyond
Our tools are more than just utensils; they are a pathway to maintaining a social lifestyle. By removing the frustration of dropped food, we help users focus on the conversation rather than the struggle of eating.
