Most chopping boards today are made from plastic, glass, steel or glued composites, materials that can leach chemicals, warp over time, dull your knives, and simply don’t belong near the food your family eats.
Built from premium, sustainably sourced acacia, each Acacia PureCut™ Board is crafted to handle years of daily slicing and meal prep. Because they’re made from pure solid timber with no toxic glues or dangerous sealants, they won’t leach toxins, absorb odours, or trap moisture. Keeping them clean is simple, just a warm hand wash and air-dry.
At Wattle&Wombat™, our mission is to make every kitchen safer, cleaner, and more beautiful, with carefully designed, high-quality teakwood utensils Australians trust
Yes! Our boards are made from 100% solid acacia hardwood with no toxic glues, coatings, or chemical sealants. They’re completely natural and safe for daily food prep — nothing synthetic touches your food.
To form the board, the acacia pieces are carefully joined using minimal amounts of natural, food-safe resins and high pressure, a standard and safe process used in quality hardwood products. This allows the wood to remain strong and stable without relying on harmful chemicals.
Our boards have no nasty coatings, or toxic glues, lacquers, or sealants.
The only thing applied externally is a layer of our organic food-grade mineral oil, which helps condition the timber and protect it naturally. We recommend re-applying a small amount every few months (or when the wood looks dry) to keep your board nourished and looking beautiful.
No. Acacia is a naturally gentle hardwood, meaning it’s strong enough to last but soft enough to protect your blades. Unlike glass, steel, or plastic boards, our boards won’t dull, chip, or damage your knives.
Just hand-wash with warm water and a little soap, then air-dry.
Avoid soaking or putting them in the dishwasher (heat + steam can warp any natural wood). For extra care, you can apply a small amount of food-grade oil every few weeks to maintain shine and moisture balance.
When cared for properly (quick wash + air-dry), they stay naturally stable. Since they’re solid timber with no glued layers, there are no internal gaps where moisture, mould, or bacteria can hide. Acacia is naturally resistant to odours, moisture, and microbes.
Absolutely. Acacia hardwood is naturally anti-microbial, making it ideal for everyday chopping, slicing, and prepping. Just wash after use (like any board) and you’re good to go.
