The "Kukula" manual liquid dispenser
Inspired by the elegant "Pecking Rooster"
The "kukula" is a manual liquid or hand sanitiser dispenser made with coconut shells. The coconut shells are sustainably sourced and the removed kernel is returned to manufacture organic coconut oil. Doesn't the slanted position and the neatly engraved grooves reminds you of a rooster pecking on the ground?
Donate sanitizer to a rural school
Did you know that we donate 10ml of sanitiser per a "kukula" we sell?
At Valentino Bianchi, we are immensely concerned about sustainability and social responsibility. We have started a donation program to support rural schools in Sri Lanka to fight the pandemic by providing liquid hand sanitiser for each and every "kukula" we sell.
We have partnered with one of the most prestigious rural schools supporting platforms in Sri Lanka, the Help Schools Foundation to make this project a success.
We are pleased to say that each "kukula" you purchase would contribute 10ml of hand sanitiser to a rural school in Sri Lanka

Frequently Asked Questions
We recommend to keep the "kukula" on any surface. The "kukula" will look tremendous on your tabletop, kitchen-top or on the vanity top in your bathroom.
We feel awful to say that "kukula" is a manual pump so no electricity is required. Fill the coconut shell with liquid and only a gently press is required to dispense the liquid.
The only plastics involved are the dispensing pump and the bottle neck. To make the deal more sweeter, the bottle neck is sourced as a re-used item.
Well, unless you burn it in a BBQ pit of course. Coconut shells are one of the strongest shells and we have never seen one even slightly cracking.
