Chemicals in plastic like melamine, bisphenols and phthalates are harmful to a child's hormones, growth and brain development. That's why a pediatrician mom created a safe and practical solution. It won’t stain or retain soapy tastes or a chemical smell like silicone. It won’t break like bamboo. And it won’t peel like other steel coatings. Plus, it’s dishwasher safe!

Our products are more than just dishes. They are tools to create a lifetime of healthy habits. Our modular designs serve as a map for creating healthy balanced meals. Follow along our simple mealtime guides for toddlers, preschoolers and grade schoolers - created by pediatricians.

Our colorful products are coated with titanium in a process that does NOT produce toxic run off into the environment. Titanium, like stainless steel is a favorable food-safe material because it is inert.

In 2018 the AAP published that chemicals in plastic can interfere with a child’s hormones, growth and brain development. Dr. Manasa Mantravadi, mom to 3 young children, member of the American Academy of Pediatrics Council on Environmental Health and an Indian immigrant who grew up using stainless steel at the dining table – saw that there were limited safe, practical dinnerware options for parents. And so, Ahimsa was born - a perfect mix of her love for children, background in medicine and Indian heritage.
