The idea of GN Products started when my partner Nick and I wanted to build something that could help the environment. We want to use our resources and knowledge to benefit the earth in whatever way we can. We thought to ourselves, what’s something that everyone uses that could be harmful to the environment. Everyone eats off of a plate. We looked into it, and the leftover glaze used to make most ceramic plates includes chemical mixtures like lead that must be disposed of as hazardous waste. Think about how many plates there are in just this country alone. If we can get people to start using our plates and other wooden dinnerware, we can dramatically cut back the amount of chemicals poured into the environment. The wooden acacia plates are not only more durable and more eco friendly; they’re a better quality than ceramic. We want to give the world something beautiful and leave it a better place than we found it.
