Wooden kitchen utensils have been a staple in homes around the world for generations. Wood is not only a natural and sustainable material but also a practical choice for kitchen tools due to its durability, gentleness on cookware, and aesthetic appeal. When selecting kitchen utensils, there are many factors to consider, and at Noyer, we are proud to offer products that combine functionality, quality, and design.
Wood – A sustainable and durable choice
When it comes to sustainability, wood is one of the best choices for kitchen utensils. Wood is a renewable resource, and when properly treated, wooden utensils can last for many years. At Noyer, our kitchen utensils are made from walnut wood, known for its strength and beauty. Walnut has a natural dark hue, which adds warmth and elegance to your kitchen.
Moreover, wooden utensils are gentle on your pots and pans, meaning you can use them without worrying about scratching or damaging surfaces. Unlike metal utensils, which can cause damage, or plastic, which can melt at high temperatures, wood is a safe and reliable option.
Hygienic benefits of wood
While some might believe that plastic is more hygienic than wood, research shows that wood actually has natural antibacterial properties. Bacteria that reach the surface of wooden utensils die quickly because the wood absorbs and kills them. This makes wooden utensils a healthier choice for cooking and handling raw food.
At Noyer, our kitchen utensils are treated with natural oils that protect the wood from moisture and stains, while preserving its natural beauty. This means you can use our utensils with peace of mind, knowing that they are both safe and easy to maintain.
An aesthetic choice
In addition to their practical benefits, wooden kitchen utensils are also an aesthetic choice. Wooden utensils add rustic charm to any kitchen and pair well with both modern and traditional kitchen designs. Noyer's wooden utensils are handcrafted and have a simple yet elegant shape that reflects the best of Danish design. Our focus on minimalist aesthetics means that our utensils look beautiful and function perfectly in your daily cooking.
The natural color and texture of the wood also bring an organic element into your kitchen, creating a calming and inviting atmosphere. Whether you use them for cooking or simply as decoration on your kitchen counter, wooden utensils from Noyer will surely add a touch of luxury to your kitchen.
Caring for wooden utensils
To ensure that your wooden kitchen utensils last for many years, it’s important to maintain them properly. Fortunately, it’s quite simple. Avoid putting wooden utensils in the dishwasher, as this can cause the wood to crack and warp. Instead, wash them by hand with warm water and mild soap, and dry them immediately. Occasionally, you can treat them with a little mineral oil to maintain the wood's glow and prevent it from drying out.
Noyer's cutting board – A kitchen essential
As part of our range of kitchen utensils, we also offer the beautiful Noyer cutting board. The cutting board is made from the same premium walnut we use for our other products. With its solid construction and timeless design, Noyer's cutting board is an essential addition to your kitchen. It's both gentle on your knives and sturdy enough to handle even the most demanding tasks.
The minimalist appearance fits perfectly in modern kitchens, while the natural material adds a sense of authenticity and craftsmanship. Whether you use it for chopping, slicing, or serving, Noyer’s cutting board is sure to impress.
