# Triangulated Culinary Tools Kool Multi-Grater Has Three Sides for a Trio of Ingredient Treatments By Amelia Roblin | Published 2014-02-14 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kool-multigrater References: [kool.hk](http://www.kool.com.hk/web/product_detail.php?id=243&act=new) Many cooks will tell you that [food preparation implements like shredders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caraway-kitchen-gadget) can still benefit from some ingenuity. The [Kool](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bench-seating) Multi-Grater presents another solution to an item that is often rather awkward to utilize. The Hong Kong-based has come up with a design that seems to combine existing products like the stand-up grater and the handheld version. This [vegetable and cheese grater](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/extra-sharp-triple-white-cheddar-shreds) integrates three metal panels with cowled perforations of different sizes, enabling you to prepare your recipe ingredients with strips of your preferred width. Nylon casing keeps the plates in place and a slip-proof rubber handle affords a good grasp. The Kool Multi-Grater can be gripped in the right or the left hand and pressed against a dish or a countertop for support. Most significantly, it can be used in the air and angled over a bowl so that you don't have to make use of countertop space. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Customized Food Preparation Tools:** The Kool Multi-Grater demonstrates the trend of customizing culinary tools to improve efficiency and user experience. - **Multi-functional Kitchen Gadgets:** The integration of three metal panels in the Kool Multi-Grater reflects the trend of creating multi-purpose kitchen gadgets that streamline food preparation. - **Compact and Portable Kitchen Utensils:** The Kool Multi-Grater's design allows for easy handling and usage in various locations, highlighting the trend of compact and portable kitchen utensils. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Kitchenware Industry:** The Kool Multi-Grater is an example of innovative design and functionality in the kitchenware industry. - **Home Goods Industry:** The trend of creating customized and multi-functional kitchen gadgets, like the Kool Multi-Grater, presents opportunities for the home goods industry to develop innovative products. - **Travel and Outdoor Products Industry:** The compact and portable nature of the Kool Multi-Grater opens up potential opportunities for the travel and outdoor products industry to cater to consumers who enjoy cooking on the go. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Plate-Style Graters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plate-grater.md) - [Miniature Handheld Graters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/irogami-grater.md) - [Mini Handheld Graters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palm-grater.md) - [Avocado-Shaped Vegetable Cutters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avo-multifunction-veggie-cutter.md) - [Versatile Kitchen Multi-Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-multitools.md) - [Eight-in-One Kitchen Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchyhub.md) - [One-Touch Parmesan Graters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-cheese-grater.md) - [High-Quality Kitchen Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highquality-kitchen-tool.md) - [Stylish Kitchen Gadget Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/savor-series.md)
