Skagerak Soft Board - Large
A handy work station in the kitchen and a beautiful serving platter on the dining table. Our Skagerak Soft Board takes its name from the rounded edges and smooth, almost velvety surface. The board does not go soft on germs, though, as oak is well-known for its superb anti-bacterial properties.
Also available in 42x16x2 cm.

CARE
Proper usage and maintenance is vital for getting the most out of the valuable resources we have. Our designs are made to last for generations, but just like everything else, they need a little care to get there.
Oak
Oak grows in most temperate zones. The Skagerak oak comes from European forests and is either 100% FSC certified or FSC mix certified, supporting sustainable forest management. The selection of the wood is extremely careful and all processing is by hand, so that only the best and most durable pieces of wood are used in production.
Oak is a sturdy and hardwearing type of wood containing natural tannins that will protect against bacterial growth. Combined with its light, elegant colour and well-defined grains, this makes oak wood safe choice for high-quality interior.
Cleaning
The wood comes with no finish. If you choose not to treat it with soap or oil, use a suitable cleaning agent for wood.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Caring for your cutting board is important in order to enjoy it for years to come.
Beeswax polish is a popular choice for cutting board maintenance. Beeswax is an all natural wax produced by honey bees and has a variety of applications. You can use it to hydrate, shine, and waterproof a cutting board. Add a good amount of beeswax and rub it in. Let it penetrate the wood overnight. Replenish as needed. You can use baking soda to remove stubborn stains from your cutting board. Simply sprinkle a little directly on the stain and rub it in with a brush dipped in hot water. While it is important to thoroughly clean your cutting board, avoid soaking it in water or washing it in the dishwasher. This will warp or crack your board. Washing the board should be done quickly and efficiently..
