Brand Feature

Emile Henry is a producer of high quality ceramic ovenware, bakeware and other gourmet cooking products. Still family owned and manufactured in Marcigny, a small town in the province of Burgundy, France, their wares are impecably crafted of Burgundy clay using their proprietary high resistance state-of-the-art oven ceramic manufacturing process. They stand behind their products with a 10 year warranty against breakage due to defective workmanship. Chefs hail them for their even distribution of heat. They are incredibly easy to clean and can go oven to freezer. We baked salmon in ours and the fish skin was easily cleaned off. We love the cork and cermaic storage for displaying beautiful fruit and root veggies. Their ovenware and bakeware exhibit extraordinary thermal shock properties. They can go under the broiler and are microwave and dishwasher safe. Most importantly, they are lead AND cadmium free. All of their glazes meet California Prop 65, and all of the products are 100% food safe. They are also PFOA, PFOA and PTFE free. Sold at various stores including Williams Sonoma and online at Food52.com and Emile Henry.

Ettitude 

Brand Feature

Ettitude is a B Corporation, Climate Neutral Certitfied and 1% for the Planet, contributing at least one percent of their annual revenue to environmental causes to protect the environment. 

Everything tested to date has been stellar and both the packaging and their products are well made, high quality and luxurious.  To date we have tested their sheets, mattress protector, pillow protectors and their super soft vegan cashmere throw blanket. Their products are free from chemicals and use 500 percent less water, and produce 52 percent less carbon emissions,  making them a very sustainable choice. Their CleanBamboo® is lyocell, made from organically grown bamboo, and uses absolutely zero toxic chemicals in the process, unlike all other bamboo fabrics on the market.

All products featured on green with living are independently selected.

After initial in depth research, it’s typical for only two or three brands to be tested.

This keeps the environment top of mind by minimizing waste and excess of samples reviewed.

At green with living showroom appointments are also often scheduled as a way to discover brands in person to reduce waste.
