Experience & Quality

Our experience and expertise in photo-etching manufacturing over the last 50 years has, earned Microplane the finest reputation in the industry. Microplane has highly trained personnel and constantly strives to improve processes, exploring new technologies and production techniques.

It is actually the people that stand behind the processes and machines and make our premium products. They are our heroes.

In addition, Microplane only uses the highest quality stainless steel for making our etched graters. While other companies claim to use surgical stainless steel, Microplane actually uses the same premium steel that we use for our medical supplies division. In addition to using the highest quality stainless steel, we only use “half to full hard” steel vs softer steel. Whilst stainless steel is more expensive and takes longer to etch, it results in longer-lasting, superior quality edges
