Do you recognize this about your animal? Many dogs and cats eat daily from a feeder that doesn't suit them. And you don't always notice it right away - until you really start paying attention.

• The bowl slides away or makes noise
• Your pet gulps down his food
• Your pet throws kibble next to the bowl
• Your pet seems restless or even avoids its food

👉 Often it's not the food itself, but the bowl.

Cats and dogs deserve to enjoy their meals like we do, too, because the way they eat has a direct impact on their well-being. That is why PINO creates feeding bowls that take their comfort into account, tailored to their physique, behavior and eating habits - made of sandstone, so that the bowl won't shift, stays fresh smelling and can stand up to rough handling.

Today, Pino offers more than 50 models, all with one goal: to make your dog's or cat's meal time more comfortable.

Made from natural Pino Sandstone® – for a reason

At Pino, we weren’t satisfied with the typical pet bowls you find everywhere:

• Plastic bowls made from PVC, PP, melamine or (HD)PE easily slide around and tend to absorb odors over time. They may also contain potentially harmful or hormone-disrupting substances that can trigger allergic reactions in pets – such as BPA, phthalates (plasticisers), or formaldehyde.
• Ceramics look nice but are easy to break – often into sharp pieces. This can be dangerous if your pet accidentally swallows a shard or cut himself.
• Bowls made from bamboo, coconut or rice fibres often contain only 30–40% natural fibre. The remainder is usually plastic such as melamine or PP. The viscose (rayon) fibres are typically extracted through chemical processes that may release toxic substances like carbon disulphide or sulphuric acid.
• Metal bowls can be noisy, feel cold to the touch and may startle sensitive animals. Cheap metal bowls may even contain lead – a neurotoxic substance that accumulates in the body and is especially harmful to young animals.

That’s why we developed our own natural material: Pino Sandstone® – an innovative material that solves all these issues:

• Pino bowls are heavy and sturdy, so they stay in place and are not chewable – even with the most enthusiastic eaters.
• The non-porous surface doesn’t absorb bad smells or bacteria, making meals more appealing and smelling fresh to enjoy.
• Our bowls are safe for pets with allergies or sensitive skin because Pino Sandstone® is free from BPA, phthalates, formaldehyde and of course lead – because health comes first.

Pino Sandstone® is made primarily from natural sand, with only a small percentage of natural pigments and a structural component. The material is uniquely developed by us. It's also a conscious, environmentally friendly choice. By working with natural raw materials, we reduce our ecological footprint and create bowls that truly last.

Each bowl is handmade in Belgium. Small variations in shape, colour or subtle air bubbles are part of its artisanal nature – and make every bowl unique.

Practical and pet-friendly — made for everyday life

Pino bowls are designed to be as easy to use, as they are comfortable for your pet.

• Dishwasher safe at 30°C on the top rack — also easy to clean by hand
• Perfect for wet food, kibble, or water — whatever your furry friend prefers.
• Fridge-friendly, so you can prep meals in advance or keep leftovers fresh.
• Not suitable for the microwave — our natural material doesn’t like it too hot.
• Finished with a non-slip base, so mealtime stays clean (and quiet).

Because a great feeder should make life easier — for both of you.
