Microplane is the original manufacturer to apply photo-etching technology to graters, an innovative process designed to create ultra-sharp grater blades. Made in USA, the tiny, razor-sharp teeth act like finely honed knives, cutting ingredients with precision rather than tearing them. Created as a woodworking tool, the original zester revolutionized grating in 1994 finding enthusiastic support from professional chefs & culinary enthusiasts.
DISHWASHER SAFE & EASY CLEANING

Graters (excluding Master Series) are dishwasher safe. However, to ensure that the blades stay sharp as long as possible, we recommend washing them by hand.

ADAPTABLE & SAFE PERFORMANCE

Each product we offer comes equipped with a protective cover for increased longevity and ease of storage. Our hand-held paddle graters feature non-slip rubber feet, offering superior stability.

EFFORTLESS GRATING EXPERIENCE

Thanks to the sharpness of our blades, a minimal effort is all it takes for food to glide gently and easily off the blade without needing to apply any pressure.
