Care Instructions

Caring for you Fab Slabs
Wash your cutting board in warm soapy water after using it for cutting or serving.

Dry the cutting board completely before putting it away. (Whilst these boards are naturally antibacterial, if they are put away regularly whilst still containing moisture this can cause surface mold.)

When it looks dry, oil it lightly. We use grapeseed oil or Duzz All. 

Do Not;

  • Put the cutting board in the dishwasher
  • Leave out in the sun 
  • Leave soaking in water

There is no need to rub salt or lemon into the board. Your Fab Slabs board is naturally antibacterial already and does not need salt or lemon to kill any germs.

Notes on using solid wood boards.
A solid piece of wood can buckle overtime due to the grain and/or knots in the wood. This is completely natural and if it does happen you can place on the bench (so that the board looks like an arch) and use something heavy to press it down flat - for ongoing care keep the board flat rather than standing upright.

Grain Raising
You may notice the surface feels slightly rough or fuzzy after your first wash. This is completely normal and is called "grain raising" - it happens with all natural wood products the first time they come into contact with water or heat. It is actually a sign that your product is made from natural, untreated wood - exactly as it should be.

To fix it, simply follow these steps:

1. Allow to dry completely at room temperature for a few hours.

2. Once dry, lightly sand with 220 grit sandpaper - rub gently along the grain, not against it. This will smooth the raised fibres and leave the surface silky again.

3. Rub a small amount of food-safe oil or our Duzz All Beeswax into the wood to condition it and protect against future grain raising.

After this first treatment your board will stay much smoother with regular use.

Fab Slabs Cutting board

I have been using my Fab Slabs cutting board for about a week now and it’s been fantastic. It smells great, and I love knowing it’s a solid piece of wood free from glues ect. I applied Duzz All Beezwax and will continue doing so as needed to maintain it.

Gorgeous!

I purchased a medium sized fabslab after removing all the plastic chopping boards from my home. What a fantastic investment. I love everything about it - the look, the feel, the smell, the functionality. So thrilled to know I have safer products in my kitchen, and what a perk that they are so beautiful too. 100% recommend.

What a beautiful board! I fell in love with mine that (I was luckily gifted one) and I bought two more, they were so great! I love that they are antibacterial. I threw out my old terrible plastic ones. Would recommend these to anyone and having different sized boards is really handy! They also smell SO good 😊
