Frequently Asked Questions

Is bamboo a good material for a cutting board?
Yes. Bamboo is harder than most woods, making it durable and long-lasting. It is naturally antibacterial, does not absorb odours easily, and is much more sustainable than plastic. Bamboo is also gentler on knife edges than glass or ceramic boards.

Can I put a bamboo cutting board in the dishwasher?
No. Bamboo cutting boards should be hand washed with warm soapy water and dried immediately. The dishwasher's heat and moisture will cause the bamboo to crack and warp over time.

Is bamboo antibacterial?
Yes. Bamboo has a natural antimicrobial property that inhibits the growth of bacteria. However, you should still wash the board thoroughly after cutting raw meat, poultry or fish.

How do I care for my bamboo cutting board?
Hand wash with mild soap, dry immediately, and oil the board occasionally with food-grade mineral oil to keep the bamboo hydrated and prevent cracking.

Is this cutting board suitable for cutting raw meat in Singapore?
Yes. The bamboo surface is food-safe and can be used for all cutting tasks including raw meat and poultry. Wash thoroughly with hot soapy water after contact with raw proteins. We recommend keeping a dedicated board for raw meat if you are concerned about cross-contamination.

What size is this cutting board?
28cm x 20cm — a compact, practical size for everyday Singapore kitchen use. It fits easily beside the hob for prep work and can be stored in standard kitchen drawers or cabinets.
