About us
Ahimsa was born from one simple opportunity: to advocate for children’s health—on a national scale.
When founder and pediatrician, Dr. Manasa Mantravadi, learned that the majority of kids’ dishware on the market was likely to pose health risks—and that steel was the only practical, science-backed choice—she knew it was time to do something. And quickly.
Tapping back into her childhood in India and memories of happily eating from stainless steel, she went to work crafting a modern set of dishes that were eye-catching and playful, modularly designed for smart portioning, lovable and enduring for a lifetime. That’s how this pediatrician became an entrepreneur.
And how this aha moment became Ahimsa! It’s our love letter to families everywhere, and to the planet we all call home.
