- Unique Properties
- The Infinity Cat Litter Scoop is designed with ergonomics in mind, angled at 35 degrees to minimize strain on the wrist. The scoop features a unique infinity-shaped hole pattern, suitable for various types of cat litter, regardless of size or coarseness. The front end has smaller holes, and the back end has larger ones, increasing efficiency in sifting through clumps of various sizes. This high efficiency reduces the impact on respiratory health for both cats and humans.

- Production Technology
- Compared to wooden and iron litter scoops, Infinity is made from durable ABS material, resistant to mold and rust. It has a surface pattern that prevents condensation and simplifies cleaning. The scoop has a comfortable grip and a convenient hanging hook, allowing it to be easily hung in different environments.
- Design Challenge
- The Infinity Cat Litter Scoop is uniquely designed with an "Infinity shape" that accommodates the shaking angle used by cat owners when sifting litter. It works effectively with various types and sizes of cat litter. The 35-degree angle between the scoop and the ground provides ergonomic scooping. Its different hole sizes handle both large and small clumps, increasing efficiency by 28% and promoting litter reuse. The Infinity Cat Litter Scoop is a breakthrough product that considers practical everyday use and encourages efficient, environmentally-friendly practices.
- Research
- Cat owners need a reliable litter scoop for daily cleaning. However, a poorly designed scoop can ruin the cat ownership experience. Small scoops are time-consuming and raise dust, risking respiratory problems. Large holes fail to remove urine clumps, causing odors. The Infinity scoop solves these issues, simplifying cleaning and enhancing the joy of being a pet parent.
- Inspiration
- With the growing trend of indoor cats, cat litter trays have become essential for pet-friendly environments. However, the process of scooping litter can be inconvenient and environmentally unfriendly, requiring multiple scoops for different litter types. Furthermore, both cats and humans are often exposed to dust, causing discomfort. Our goal is to enhance the pet-human environment by creating an ergonomic and eco-friendly litter scoop that minimizes dust and can handle all types of cat litter.
- Project Duration
- Launched in 2021.
- Operation Flow
- Considering the comfort of both cats and pet owners, the Infinity scoop is designed with an ergonomic angle of 35 degrees, making it easy to use and protecting the wrist. Its unique hole design efficiently scoops up clumps of different sizes, reducing sifting time by 28% and minimizing dust. This promotes the health of both cats and owners while improving litter utilization and contributing to environmental sustainability.
