Why Utsie?
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought sanitization concerns to the forefront, as dining establishments struggle to reopen and adjust to a “new normal” in operational standards. Members of the public and the restaurant industry are finally taking a harder, more critical look at safety and health regulations, prompting the question: How can we make dining out safer for both consumers and restaurant workers alike? The answer is Utsie, a patent pending, disposable utensil holder made to keep clean cutlery off of dirty surfaces. While we can’t control how thoroughly tables are disinfected at restaurants, we can guarantee that your silverware is safe with Utsie. These single-use utensil holders block dangerous bacteria from your flatware. Once you are finished eating, the Utsie is discarded and a fresh one takes its place - clean and ready for the next restaurant patron!

Statistics
Studies from the University of Arkansas, University of Ohio and University of Arizona have shown that there is aerobic bacteria on 70% of tables, 83% of menus and 100% of ketchup bottles at eating establishments. Dr. Chuck Gerba of University of Arizona found that E-coli is present on at least 8% of restaurant tables and menus in America.
What can we glean from these sobering statistics?
Your household toilet seat is likely cleaner than a restaurant table.
Eco Friendly Practices
Utsie is also proud to be an environmentally conscious brand. We avoid harmful, petroleum-based inks and print your designs with eco-friendly, vegetable-based inks. Along with our disposable models, we are even beginning to develop a plastic, dishwasher safe variation for household use.
