Design Inspired

Zutto Collection
The ZUTTO® Collection represents Zojirushi's first consumer launch designed and developed as a line of products. The concept of the ZUTTO® Collection was born of the collaboration between Zojirushi engineering and a renowned Japanese interior designer - thus giving the collection a seamless, elegant design theme. Unlike other Zojirushi products, the physical body of the ZUTTO® was designed first, then the inner technology. This exciting and modern collection of kitchen electronics emphasizes streamlined operation, providing only the basic functions necessary for operating each appliance. Symbolic icons, instead of labels, make the control buttons universally recognizable. ZUTTO (ZOOT-tow), meaning "always" in Japanese, is designed to be enjoyed and used universally, for any occasion, anytime.
