Our first choice for all work boards is wood. Not only is wood naturally beautiful, it has a very special feel too. But more importantly, the tannins in the wood have an antibacterial effect, making the material totally food-friendly. All of the cutting, chopping and pasta boards are therefore made from solid steamed maple or solid beech. The cutting boards - with the exception of the bread-cutting board - are oiled in order to make their surfaces resistant to all of the stresses of everyday use.
