Our Story | Milton Brook

OUR
STORY

HISTORY
For over a century, Milton Brook, has been producing the iconic mortar and pestle. Designed for home use but finding its way into many professional kitchens and laboratories over the years, the uses are plentiful.

Since its launch, the Milton Brook brand has continued to grow throughout the 20^th and 21^st century, providing excellent quality and service for chefs and herbalists alike.

SUSTAINABILITY
Re-using broken pieces of ceramic for artistic and home renovation projects is widespread, but we like to take things further. That’s why we practice sustainable manufacturing by recycling waste heat, wastewater and excess clay for maximum use. We also save on road miles – and associated emissions – by always trying to source our raw materials locally.

Our porcelain is lead-free (Proposition 65),100% food-safe and ISO9001:2015 certified.

craftmanship

We’ve carefully developed a process which ensures quality at every stage of manufacturing. From product innovation to state-of-the-art technology, we combine quality workmanship with contemporary and premium style.

Our mortar and pestles come in a wide range of sizes to suit your needs, each created with a dense structural base and long beech wood handle for ease and comfort. To go that extra mile, our materials stand out from the sea of stone and wood by supporting a non-porous finish, preventing stains, odours, and bacteria growth unlike many porous stones like granite and marble.
