Know before you buy
ChopValue uses a micro-factory process where collected chopsticks are cleaned, sanitized, and pressed under high heat and pressure with a resin binder to create a durable, wood-like composite material.
These coasters are designed specifically for indoor use. While the material is durable, prolonged exposure to outdoor elements like direct rain or extreme humidity may compromise the finish.
Wipe the coasters clean with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid soaking them in water or putting them in the dishwasher, as excess moisture can cause the wood composite to warp or swell.
The design is integrated into the material during the manufacturing process rather than being a surface-level sticker or print. This ensures the skyline pattern remains crisp and resistant to peeling through regular use.
Each set of these coasters repurposes 300 used chopsticks, effectively diverting them from landfills and storing approximately 440g of carbon in the process.
