  • Wooden Tablewares are the natural, environmentally friendly alternative to plastic utensils. These utensils are safe to use and easy to clean. They also look beautiful in a kitchen interior. Wooden dishes absorb water and swell, so it is best to wash them immediately after use. Avoid putting them in the refrigerator for long, as they easily pick up food odors. Peaceful to eat from Wooden plates and bowls have a unique je ne sais quoi that is appealing to many people. They are natural, calming and create a peaceful sensory experience when you eat from them. They are also eco friendly, durable and long lasting and, if treated correctly they can last for generations. Wood is a natural material that can be grown, harvested and processed with minimal energy and environmental impact. It is biodegradable and does not release toxins into the environment. Additionally, it is a renewable resource and does not require the toxic chemicals that are used in the production of plastics. Wooden utensils are one of a kind as each piece of wood has its own grain patterns, making them uniquely beautiful and tactile. However, it is important to remember that if you use wooden utensils for food that they should be cleaned right away. Letting them soak overnight can make them more porous and accelerate deterioration. Natural insulator Wood is a natural insulator, it keeps your food or drink hot without burning your hands. It also helps you hold it without getting cold hands, so it’s great for a bowl of porridge on a chilly morning. Unlike plastic and ceramic, wood doesn’t leach any harmful chemicals into your food. Likewise, it is safe for kids to use as it won’t chip or shatter if they throw their wooden spoon across the room. Most natural materials are renewable, biodegradable and a low-carbon source of insulation. They also provide a range of other benefits. Sheep’s wool, for example, is hygroscopic and releases moisture into the air, helping control condensation levels. In addition, it is breathable, which improves internal air quality and reduces toxicity. These materials are also a lot easier to recycle than synthetic insulation. They don’t require water or energy to manufacture and can be recycled after use. They can also be used as mulch or horticultural feed. Maintenance free Wooden Tableware is a set of wooden dishes and kitchenware that is used to serve food and drink. They can be made of various types of wood and are available in a wide variety of sizes and styles. They are very durable and long-lasting and can be used for many years. They are also easy to clean and maintain. However, it is important to note that wooden tableware does not fare well with extreme temperatures and sudden changes in temperature can cause deformation or cracking. It is also a good idea to avoid storing them in damp areas. Stains on wooden dishes can be removed by rubbing them with baking soda mixed with water. This cleaning method is natural and free from chemicals. Lemon can also be used as a stain remover. It has strong antibacterial, astringent, and antiseptic properties. It also has a mild bleaching effect. Lacquer and urethane coating are methods of finishing wood that protect it from stains and scratches. Long lasting Depending on the type of wood, wooden bowls, boards and utensils can last a lifetime. Olive wood is particularly hard, dense, and water resistant, making it an excellent choice for kitchen tools that are used frequently. If you want to ensure your wooden ware lasts a long time, rubbing it with food-safe mineral oil is a good idea. Wooden utensils also do not have the same negative impact on the environment as plastic and metal tableware. They do not require any harmful chemicals to make and are 100% biodegradable. They are a good alternative to single-use plastic cutlery, which is polluting landfills and water bodies around the world.
