Why choosing a wooden cutting boards with transversal cut?

Their durability, the handicraft construction technique and the beauty of their three-dimensional design make our cutting boards of great value and highly appreciated by the public. The solid wood cutting boards with transversal cut are more durable and resistant since the wood fibres are perpendicular to the surface of the board rather than parallel. They are the product chosen by most of the professional chefs because they are more solid and durable than the classic wooden cutting boards because following the cut, the wood fibres tend to close again instead of leaving the marked sign of the cut as happens in the classic cutting boards. Even the sharpening of the knife lasts longer since the blade moves between the fibres of the wood, remaining more on the surface rather than penetrating deeply into the cutting board. Finally, they are also more hygienic because the cut wood tends to close again and the treatment with mineral oil prevents bacteria from penetrating into the fibres.

Our wooden cutting boards with transversal cut are available in various models which differ in the essences of the wood and in the chosen pattern/design. They go from the classic checkered model, similar to the cutting board used during the Sky series presented by the well-known Giorgione Orto e Cucina, up to the models which create optical illusions or three-dimensional effect through the juxtaposition and repetition of geometrical patterns realized with different type of woods. Finally, they are also more hygienic because the cut wood tends to close again and the treatment with mineral oil prevents bacteria from penetrating into the fibres.
