Why Choose Wooden Boards for Your Business
When choosing a wooden board, the key is to have a sturdy and durable item. Here at UK Hip Flasks, we strive for the best quality and being FSC-certified makes us a reliable supplier for your business.
The importance of FSC certification is because this certification provides assurance that the wood or paper products came from a sustainably managed forest, supporting biodiversity, community rights, and fair labour practices.
Types of Wood for Wholesale Boards
A wide assortment of chopping boards can be found in UK hip flasks from Hevea wood, to untreated and treated Beechwood.
Caring for and Maintaining Wooden Chopping Boards
- Brush off any food, then using a light scouring pad clean gently with warm soapy water. Ensure both sides are wet. Then use a clean sponge or cloth to soak up any remaining water. It is important to dry your board correctly. For boards with feet, place them on the counter top as normal. For boards without feet, either place your board in a rack to dry like a plate or alternatively dry the board standing upright on its edge to allow air to circulate evenly around the board.
- Never place a board without feet flat on a counter to dry. This will result in uneven drying, and a warped or split board.
- Never clean in a dishwasher.
- To maintain wooden boards and prevent drying out, regularly apply a food-safe mineral oil to keep them conditioned.
How to Personalize Boards for Branding or Gifts
Personalising chopping boards whether it’s for a corporate event, engraving logos and other graphics fundamentally emphases the product. CO2 lasers cut through the wood, revealing more texture, and emphases the artwork. Having engraving on a chopping board not only adds sophistication but a luxurious feel.
How do you engrave? You need a CO2 machine. A focused light beam zaps the wood, creating so much heat that the wood basically vanishes instantly. Because the beam is incredibly accurate, it's perfect for making those tiny, beautiful details when you're engraving a design, or for slicing out really intricate, complex shapes that would be tough to cut by hand.
Don’t have a laser machine? No problem, here at UK Hip Flasks our experts can handle it. Choose your chopping board style and let us do the magic. View more information, on how to engrave with UK Hip Flasks, here.
