Hello Everyone,

We started shipping rewards in batches and fulfilled about 400+ EKOwareUSA Core & Ti-Ultra Pledges of our 2020-21 Campaigns. All domestic Pledges have been shipped and International Shipments may take a little longer to arrive. Australia and New Zealand still have shipping restictions due to COVID for First Class USPS but we are keeping an eye on it. Please message us if you have any questions. 

EKOwareUSA was founded by a desire to design & make a conveniently compact cutlery solution in fighting single-use plastics that inevitably harms our world now and for future generations.  We hope you’ll get great use of your EKO kit on-the-go, on-the-fly, and out-and-about for adventures near and far!  Most of our original 1000 Core EKO Cutlery Kits and 400 Ti-Ultra Kits from our 2021-22 campaigns have been sold or gifted with more ready-to-ship from our production partners. EKO Kits as shown below are still available at www.ekowareusa.com and please use/share this $10 Off Discount Code EKOTOGO2022 at check-out :-)

We are also pleased to announce we have a Japan Distribution Partner along with local eco-friendly San Francisco, CA businesses that sells EKO in their retail shops.  Please message us if you or someone you know would be interested in retail, distribution, B2B, and company gifts partnerships in your city, country, and/or company.

Thank you all soo much for supporting our EKO-cause and bringing EKO to life.  We still have lots of work to do and plan to create more EKO offerings this year.  If you have ideas or recommendations to improve our current products or new ones please comment or message us. 

Thank You,

John & Team EKOwareUSA

Happy New Year 2022! Ti-Ultra êkö SporKits Shipping Soon
over 2 years ago – Wed, Jan 05, 2022 at 09:45:08 AM

Hello Everyone,

We received our first production batch of Ti-Ultra Kits and they look and feel pretty good at about 45% the weight of stainless steel, hypoallergenic, anti-corrosive, and around twice as strong to boot.  We are ramping up to ship Ti-Ultra and Premium Wood Ti-Ultra SporKits this week. However, we won't receive our newly modified injected-molded Clip-In Extensions to complete the Premium Ti-Ultra êkö SporKits and Cutlery Kits until early next week.

This next photo and video is from our manufacturing partners at their respective factories:

Above video shows the newly modified injected-molded black Clip-In Extension locking into the metal êkö modular grip slot for carry and eating modes.  We emphasize modular since we hope to offer a variety of Clip-In Extensions in different lengths, materials, and fold-out styles in the future (along with some product line extensions like a multi-function knife since we have a surplus of raw titanium material we had to order to meet a higher MOQ due to 2021 global supply shortages).

We hope Ti-Ultra will be conveniently handy for years upon years of use as an ultra-portable utensil kit in combatting single-use flatware. 

Please help spread the word and share our Pre-Order page  https://sporkit.backerkit.com/ along with discount code SPORKIT2022 for $5 off.  Add-Ons are also still available. 

Thank you for helping us make êkö happen,
John and EKOwareUSA Team

P.S.  If you hadn't seen it, here's a cool write-up and video by the good people at Yanko Design: https://www.yankodesign.com/2021/11/20/this-titanium-edc-spork-is-so-incredibly-durable-your-grandchildren-will-be-taking-it-on-adventures/   

We love this lil' ditty, "Designed to be compact, useful, sleek, and so insanely durable, it could be used on a human colony on Mars a 100 years from now, the Ti-Ultra êkö SporKit is a nifty little piece of travel cutlery that hopes to swear you off plastic, wood, or any of those single-use biodegradable cutlery sets."

Surveys Sent Soon for Shipping Addresses

Happy Holidays! 

Be on the look out for an email from BackerKit asking for your shipping addresses to send your Rewards.  You'll also have the option to include any Add-Ons. Ti-Ultra production is almost completed and we're pushing to have the newly modified Clip-Ins sooner if possible.  We'll keep updates going.

Thank you,

John & Team EKOwareUSA
