The Microplane® story is now known to food enthusiasts around the world and is a perfect example of innovation born by chance. It all began in 1994, when a Canadian housewife, grating an orange cake, decided to replace her traditional grater with a Microplane® grater. The result was astonishing: the blade glided effortlessly across the zest, creating a fine, light grating. From this insight, a true revolution in kitchenware was born.
Today, Microplane® is recognized globally as a pioneer in the production of photo-etched graters, thanks to its innovative "Photo-Etching" process. This technology creates extremely sharp, durable, and precise blades, capable of cutting foods without crushing them or altering their texture. Proudly made in the USA, Microplane® blades guarantee smooth, effortless grating: foods slide easily across the cutting surface without sticking, delivering flawless results every time.
With over 50 years of experience, Microplane® graters have become a true kitchen essential, loved by professional chefs and amateurs alike. High performance, quality construction, and innovation make Microplane® a staple in kitchens and restaurants around the world.
