ARDOR BIN
Ardor Bin's plant obsessed founder, Latrice Littleton, couldn't find home fragrances that met the natural standards she was looking for. She created Ardor Bin with the hope of elevating the plant-based marketplace while promoting conscious consumerism. Inspired by the redolent scents of nature, Ardor Bin's exquisite line of natural botanical home fragrances and personal care products are designed to add a touch of warmth and tranquility to any living space. With your health and the environment in mind, their mission is to continue to create plant-based wellness products using raw materials, pure plant extracts, and biodegradable packaging.
ZIKICO
ZIKICO specializes in cutlery made of a unique material called zirconia, an ideal ceramic without the metallic odor of traditional utensils. After noticing the soup was more flavorful sipped directly from the plate rather than using a spoon, the brand turned to zirconia: a material with the hardness of gemstones, the suppleness of metal, and the non-allergenic properties of porcelain. ZIKICO’s goal is to allow people to savor the full palette food’s subtleties.
DEPARTO
Based in New York, departo elevates home essentials to inspire the people that use them daily. They believe good design is versatile and accessible without sacrificing quality, and their products invite a lifestyle of intentionality and sustainability. The brand departs from industry norms of consumption to cultivate objects of purpose and permanence.
