Sink Differently

More than a catchy tagline

"Sink Differently" is a plea to change the way you treat your kitchen sink! Garbage disposals have created an out-of-sight-out-of-mind problem in our communities. Beyond kitchen sink clogs, the buildup of grease and food particles in our sewers is costing our cities millions of dollars in cleanup efforts in order to keep our sewer infrastructure working and our water clean.

WHAT IS SEWER HEALTH?

Dish like the pros

There’s a reason why commercial kitchens have tools and best practices in place when it comes to dishwashing. As a matter of fact, many restaurants don’t have garbage disposals because they simply aren’t allowed to have them. They likely have a grease interceptor, designed to catch almost all of the grease that gets washed down the drain. Even so, the pros are encouraged to scrape food waste into the trash, wipe dishes with paper towels and THEN rinse the rest down the drain in order to stay compliant and keep their plumbing system running efficiently. 

But commercial kitchens are only 50% of the problem… Until now, we haven’t had a way to effectively address the grease going down the drain at home. Enter Sprout!

Scrape food waste into your compost...

or into the trash,

and then rinse.

Sprout does the rest!

Sprout both enables and encourages proper disposal of food waste and grease. It’s a simple appliance that doesn’t allow passage of large food scraps, so you’re reminded to dispose of your leftovers outside of the sink. Furthermore, it catches whatever is left. Sprout is the simple and sustainable solution to protecting our plumbing against kitchen sink waste - easy to use, easy to clean and easy to love.
