Reducing waste in a zero-waste kitchen often starts with the most repetitive actions: covering a dish, wiping a countertop, transporting a cake. It's precisely these everyday uses that our kitchen collection was designed to replace, with washable cotton equivalents, handmade in France.
Our essentials for a disposable-free kitchen
The bowl cover, a workshop best-seller, replaces cling film and aluminum foil on all types of containers. The washable paper towel, in rolls or trios, replaces disposable paper towels for routine cleaning. Then there's the bulk bag for shopping, the pie bag and cake bag for transporting your preparations, and the washable sponge for washing dishes.
Bowl cover: the zero-waste alternative to cling film
Available in several sizes, from small bowls to large dishes, the DafdePique bowl cover adapts to most round, square, oval or rectangular containers. Unlike cling film, it is machine washable and endlessly reusable, without losing its elasticity.
Washable paper towels and sponges: daily cleaning without waste
Our washable paper towel sheets, made from GOTS-certified organic cotton and honeycomb, replace several rolls of disposable paper towels per month. Combined with our washable jute and cotton sponge, they cover most kitchen cleaning needs without generating any additional waste.
Certified materials, designed to last
All our kitchen accessories are made from Oeko-Tex certified cotton, guaranteeing the absence of toxic substances. Some items, such as the paper towel, also incorporate GOTS-certified organic cotton for the honeycomb side. A choice of materials that guarantees good durability, wash after wash.
Artisanal manufacturing in Clamart
Each piece in this collection is hand-sewn in the DafdePique workshop in Clamart, following a deliberate approach since 2012: producing locally, in small batches, rather than multiplying imported references. This allows Daphnée to guarantee the quality of each bowl cover, each paper towel, each bag.
Gift idea: compose a zero-waste kitchen kit
A bowl cover, a trio of paper towels, and a pie bag make a lovely starter kit for anyone who wants to reduce their kitchen waste without drastically changing their habits. An original, useful, and durable gift idea.
Frequently asked questions about zero-waste kitchens
Does the bowl cover really replace cling film for everyday use?
Yes, for the vast majority of everyday uses: covering a dish in the refrigerator, protecting a preparation during a meal, or transporting a container without the risk of spilling its contents. Only uses requiring direct contact with a heat source, such as an oven or microwave, should be avoided with this type of fabric accessory.
Can these kitchen accessories be used daily without getting damaged?
Our bowl covers, paper towels, and bags are designed for daily use and numerous machine washes at 30°C. Regular maintenance, avoiding the tumble dryer for certain items, guarantees a lifespan of several years.
Also explore our collections of zero-waste cleaning products and zero-waste soaps to complete your disposable-free kitchen routine.
Materials chosen for daily food use
In the kitchen, contact with food imposes particular requirements on the materials used. This is why our bowl covers and paper towels are made from Oeko-Tex certified cotton, guaranteeing the absence of harmful substances, and from coated fabrics resistant to humidity for impeccable hygiene wash after wash.
The workshop regularly renews the patterns offered in this collection, in line with kitchen decor trends: natural tones, plant motifs, graphic prints. A way to dress up your kitchen while concretely reducing your household waste.
