For Samantha Rose, the idea for GIR started with a simple spatula…or rather a drawer full of broken spatulas. A 2012 Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign helped her pursue the GIR mission and bring the ultimate spatula to life. No more wooden handles that burned on the edge of the pan, no more warped spatulas in the dishwasher and no more ruining nonstick pans. Made from a single piece of platinum-grade silicone, GIR’s products are heat resistant to 425°F, with a weight and balance that make it easy to whip up any meal in the kitchen.
