Bowls & boards

Our bowls and boards are finished with a food safe varnish. This means they will not contaminate any solid or dry foods they come in contact with.

Regular care

Hand-wash only. Do not place bowls or boards in the dishwasher.

For regular cleaning, use a damp cloth. In case of a stain, use regular dish soap, then dry the item at room temperature immediately.

Do not soak or submerge the item in water.

Items that contain natural cracks in the wood and design should not be cleaned with water, as moisture can seep into the inner layers and cause mould growth. Instead, we recommend cleaning with a damp cloth only.

Recommendations

This food-safe varnish is intended for solid, dry-foods only, such as biscuits, lightly-oiled salads and bread. It is not intended for liquid foods such as soup, pasta, fruit salad or cereal with milk.

Don’t expose bowls or boards to hot foods over 60°C/140°F.

Washing the item prior to use is recommended.

Don’t use any metal utensils or cutlery that could potentially scratch the surface of the bowl and board.

Don’t put the bowl or board in the microwave, as the heat may damage it.

Don’t leave the bowl or board in the fridge, as the moisture can cause cracks and warping.

General care & maintenance tips

  1. Recommended humidity in the room: between 40% and 60%.
  2. To prevent colour differences, do not place furniture or accessories in direct sunlight, and move objects placed on the furniture from time to time. Open your extendable table the first three weeks after installing and afterwards on a regular basis.
  3. Avoid exposure to extreme conditions: Do not place furniture or accessories near heating sources or air-conditioned spaces.
  4. To prevent staining, remove any spills immediately.
  5. When cleaning the surface, always work in the direction of the wood grain.
  6. Use place mats and/or coasters to prevent hot pots and pans, or cold glasses and bottles, from leaving marks on the furniture.
  7. Do not drag the furniture along the floor; always lift the furniture when moving.
  8. Always ensure water solutions used to clean the floor do not come into contact with the furniture’s base, as it may leave permanent marks. For items that feature rubber glides, avoid using alcohol-based cleaners on floors they are in direct contact with. 
  9. Indoor products are not intended for outdoor use. An outdoor product will always indicate so in its name.
  10. Last but not least, we always recommend carefully reading the care instructions specific to your item.
