Product Description : : Thanks to the naturally occurring strength and hardness of bamboo, this material resists blade damage and as a result makes an excellent cutting surface. The board won't stain or fade and uses only food-safe, formaldehyde-free glue for assembly. Measuring 11-1/2 by 14-1/2 inches with a 5/8-inch thickness, the rectangular board ably provides enough room for chopping comfortably while still being lightweight enough to easily transport food to the stove. For those who are environmentally minded, the abundance and renewable nature of bamboo makes it an earth-friendly choice. This attractive piece boasts a body of darker material with two ends made of a contrasting bamboo in a lighter hue. All edges are rounded and the piece should be hand washed. Did you know that bamboo is 16% harder than maple? Did you know that bamboo is actually a grass, not a tree, that can be harvested after only three to four years? Some species grow nearly two feet in a single day. It has an extensive root system, new shoots are continually sent up so it never requires replanting. This makes bamboo a sustainable, cost effective, and ecologically responsible alternative to the use of hardwoods for home products such as cutting boards. The beautiful colors of this board are natural and permanent. Through a specialized heating process the natural sugar in the wood is caramelized to produce the gorgeous honey tones.
