Zyliss has undergone a strategic repositioning, fundamentally redefining the traditional Swiss brand. With a clearly defined brand identity and a contemporary, high-quality design language, Zyliss is realigning itself – aiming for high acceptance and lasting relevance. Independent, elegant, and at the same time clear, the focus is on functional details and optimal haptics.
Today, the kitchen is often part of the living space, and cooking is far more than just a basic function – it is a positive experience. That’s why the kitchen tools combine everyday usability and top-tier performance with stylish kitchen interior design – in perfect balance.
Dark, matte surfaces with a cast iron appearance create a modern, refined look. Fine textures and precise details noticeably improve handling. A defining design element is the iconic long slot – topologically derived from the brand logo – which is both visually striking and functionally thought through and is featured in most products.
The focus on high-quality, sustainable materials further reinforces the repositioning: less plastic, and instead more durable and renewable raw materials. The use of innovative materials significantly reduces plastic consumption and improves the environmental footprint in a lasting way.
Our kitchen utensils form a well-conceived, comprehensive system for preparing, cooking, and serving. The collection was developed as a holistic concept in which each tool stands out through intelligent functionality, intuitive handling, and a harmoniously coordinated design. The version with oak wood handles combines timeless aesthetics with high functionality and offers durable, indispensable solutions tailored to a wide range of kitchen needs.
The handles are made with up to 50% wheat straw – a renewable resource that reduces the use of new plastic. For maximum durability and resilience, the utensils ends are crafted from heat-resistant PBT, since nothing protects the environment more effectively than long-lasting materials.
Thoughtful design details, such as flexible silicone edges on spatulas, ensure that no valuable food is left behind in the pan. Additional features – such as draining lips on ladles and flat resting surfaces on the underside of serving tools – enable clean pouring and stable placement, increasing efficiency in everyday kitchen use.
The timeless design of the kitchen utensils reflects our Swiss heritage, combining elegance and functionality. Each element is shaped by the new Zyliss design strategy, which brings the core principles of the corporate product identity to life. Matte handle surfaces and a well-balanced feel ensure a pleasant tactile experience and secure grip. The ergonomically shaped, seamlessly integrated wood handle adds warmth and natural character to the cooking experience – a clear expression of our holistic approach to sustainable product design.
To allow for further personalisation, an expanded colour palette is currently in development and will complement the range in the future.
