What is BeeNew?

BeeNew is our own unique blend of beeswax and food safe mineral oil. It is FDA APPROVED and is the perfect consistency to apply to wood boards used for food. It requires a minimal amount for coverage and is easy to use. 

BeeNew will work into the pores of your board and keep it protected from bacteria, minimizing the risk of cross contamination. It also minimizes knife marks and scratches. BeeNew is like a facial for your board, protecting it from the elements.

Why cant I use other oils? I've heard coconut oil & olive oil will work. Is that true?

Through the years science has discovered hardwood specific hardwood cutting boards are the safest option when using as a cutting board but how you care for it is important. You should never use anything that has a shelf life to condition your board. It will eventually smell and be rancid. It is a common belief that coconut oil is safe to use as a board conditioner but it does have a shelf life so we wouldn't recommend using it on any wood product and especially one used for food.  Beeswax and Food Safe Mineral Oil are both stable  substances that will last indefinitely and offer beauty and safety to your cutting board, charcuterie, sushi, cheese, cafe, etc board. They both can work as board conditioners separately but Beeswax would be pretty hard to manipulate without the liquid emulsifier of food safe mineral oil. Mineral oil would be easier to apply, but it would be messy and likely need to be applied more often. The combination is much easier and is an asset to the look and health of your board. 

We use a two stage sealing process that makes certain your board is good to go right out of the box and we include a container of BeeNew™ to make sure you have what you need to keep it looking its best.
