Washing dinnerware, even with the convenience of a dishwasher, is a mundane, boring task that most people don't look forward to. Making life a little easier and less routine, a Swedish design company recently developed a prototype for a line of self cleaning plates.

Topped off with a superhydrophobic coating and derived from cellulose, the concept is easy -- the dishes are resistant to both dirt and debris. The designers from the company, called Tomorrow Machine stated "The product not only saves resources during the manufacturing process, but also over its full life-cycle, not requiring water and chemicals to be kept clean."

In laymen's terms, the dinnerware never requires the dreaded job of washing. As another cool aspect, the dishes will not break or crack if dropped.

The project was done for the Swedish Forest Industries Federation. The goal was for Tomorrow Machine in collaboration with a research institute to create three products that would test the future uses of cellulose.

As part of the process, cellulose pulp is stretched out to form a hard, yet lightweight sheet. The coating is then sprayed on to create the resistant surface.
