History of Microplane
Microplane started out as a manufacturer of wood shavers and wood rasps. In woodworking, it is important to always work with the sharpest tools. Not so different from working in a kitchen, then. The people at Microplane soon saw this parallel too, and in 1994 they made their first kitchen graters. Microplane is an American company, and they do a lot of their manufacturing in-house. To keep costs down, Microplane has their products assembled in Mexico. Today, Microplane's range includes a large variety of products belonging to different collections. Some collections are specifically for home use, while others are specifically for professional kitchens. What do these collections all have in common? Their razor-sharp quality!
