The current product, ‘Frogjaw,’ is an innovative piece of kitchenware, which allows the user to attach existing utensils to pots and pans. It also enables the utensils to be propped up off the work surface, which increases hygiene and allows those with poor dexterity to carry out basic
food preparation tasks.

Since July 2012 it has sold 7,400 units and today is stocked in high-end kitchenware retailers throughout Ireland and in London.

The product was selected to showcase at the London Design Festival as one of the Top 30 up-and-coming designs, and was shortlisted in the Top 25 most innovative start-ups in Ireland by the Irish Times.
