Questions

Mono Steel is one stainless steel with nothing bonded to it, and a published lab report from an independent lab. Mono Glass is the same idea for borosilicate glass. No published report, no name. Neither material has earned its name yet.

"No" means the lab measured it and the result fell below the limit of quantification. The number is on the report. Until the first report is published, the No List is our specification.

We have not tested the materials yet. No test means no report. The report page is live so you can see that it is empty. When the first result exists, you will find it there.

We do. The cost is built into our prices. The lab is independent and chosen by us. Their job is to measure, not to make us look good.

No. We test the two materials: the stainless steel and the borosilicate glass. The report says which sample was tested and when. It does not cover each finished piece, and we would rather tell you that than let you assume more.

We do not use it. We will publish the fact that it failed, what the result was, and what we did about it.

The price reflects what it costs to make the product, test it, and publish the result. We would rather put two pieces together as a set than mark one down. If the price drops, it means something else dropped too.

No. Otto is a character we invented to hold the standard. The brand is owned by Finesse Media AB in Gothenburg. Otto does not exist, but the standard does. We thought it was better to be honest about that than to invent a fake founder with a backstory about hand-forging steel in a cabin.

Not yet. Sign up for early access and you will be first to know when the first reports are published and the first pieces are ready to ship. We will not sell a single piece before the report on its material is published.
