RENEW by TRINITY is a new houseware brand that debuted its first collection at The Inspired Home Show 2024 in Chicago, showcasing a range of artisan-crafted products made from reclaimed bamboo chopsticks. RENEW sources bamboo chopsticks from its partner, ChopValue, a certified B Corporation committed to "urban harvesting" single-use chopsticks from restaurants across the USA and Canada.
Weekly, 1.5 billion single-use bamboo chopsticks are discarded around the world, amounting to 5.4 trillion annually. RENEW by TRINITY crafts products that give new life to bamboo chopsticks and its upcycled designs add both beauty and functionality to kitchens and living spaces.
The brand's beautifully unique styles like the Gather + Graze Serving Board, which is small in size yet big on impact, reclaims 265 chopsticks and saves 28.44 pounds of CO2. Each sustainably produced item similarly details its environmental impact.
