What are Built-Up Utensils?

Built up handles provide a variety of ergonomic gripping positions for a wide range of utensils used for dining and drinking. Built-up handles, as the name suggests, are built up with a material to increase the surface area of the handle which in turn provides greater grip over the adaptive dining aid. They are designed in a way that allows them to be angled or positioned in a variety of directions.

Built-up handled utensils have soft, built-up foam handles that spread the fingers so that they don't completely close around the utensil. Holding the utensil in such a position reduces the stress on the joints and allow the user to grasp it more easily.
