Normann Copenhagen Presents the Pinch Cheese Grater

Normann Copenhagen expands their range of practical kitchen utensils with an innovative grater. The Pinch Cheese Grater has a built-in collection pan to prevent spills. The sharp grating surface makes Pinch perfect for grating ingredients finely. With its soft, rounded curves, Pinch is both practical and aesthetically pleasing.

The designers have updated the traditional grater and made it into an aesthetic and user-friendly design object. The design concept is based on two parts combined in an ergonomic product – a stainless steel grater and a collection pan. The pan is made of a flat piece of plastic that gets its three-dimensional shape by clamping it underneath the grater.

“The idea arose one day when we were having pasta in the studio,” says Böttcher Henssler Kayser, designer of the Pinch Cheese Grater. “After lunch there was cheese all over the table. We realized that this was a general problem with graters. To solve the problem, we designed Pinch – a simple and functional grater.”

The fine grater efficiently grates various cheeses, as well as other types of ingredients such as nutmeg, chocolate, lemon, etc. The two parts can be taken apart easily and put in the dishwasher.

The Pinch Cheese Grater has a suggested retail prices of $17.50 and is available in white, yellow, rose, purple, blue and black. For more information, visit www.normann-copenhagen.com.
