We promote a healthy planet by buying our timber only from FSC certified mills in the US. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) ensures that the forest of origin meets strict environmental, social, and economic standards,Β supporting sustainable practices that protect biodiversity, conserve natural habitats, and respect the rights of local communities and indigenous peoples.
Our customers can trust that their purchase supports responsible forestry, contributing to the preservation of forests and the promotion of sustainable practices worldwide.
We exclusively use premium FAS grade timber, ensuring high quality on both sides, making our boards truly reversible. As shown in the graph, FAS grade timber costs three times more than lower grades. For our solid boards, we use FAS Wide grade timber, which costs five times more than lower grades due to its rarity and is the most expensive timber available.
Our boards feature a juice groove on one side and plain on the other to use as you prefer. We include a friction mat for stability, and optional feet for if you prefer.Β Combining exceptional craftsmanship and functionality, our boards are designed to meet all your cutting needs with ease and style.
We want to be known for our dedication to safer cooking, and follow a three-step integrated approach to meet this objective:
1) One-piece approach to prevent delamination: our boards are made from one solid piece of timber (photo 1), or end steel reinforced (photo 2, X-ray shown) end-grain boards which are made βas if one pieceβ
2) Reduce moisture continent to below 7% (photo 3) using our proprietary vacuum drying process to stabilise the timber and allow deeper penetration with oil
3) Every Wahlch board features factory-bonded BioLock technology that penetrates deep into the grain to form a permanent bond with the wood fibers. It creates an invisible, sub-surface safety net that mechanically neutralizes bacteria on contact during everyday use. This ensures even deep knife gashes remain fully protected against the microscopic rot that causes permanent black stains and foul odors.
Our boards are packed in a 7-ply white cardboard box designed to keep the board intact and free from damage during the delivery process. Included in the box are the following:
Cutting board wrapped in honeycomb paper. We donβt use any plastic such as bubble wrap.
A set of 4 silcone feet. Removable, washable, allow the board to be used on both sides.
