Cutting boards are an inseparable part of any kitchen. However, trying to balance functionality, durability, and aesthetic appeal in one product immediately raises the question of the choice of material. While a number of woods may be utilized for this purpose, Canadian maple is one of the best choices for both amateur chefs and professional cooks. In this article, we will see why Canadian maple is superior for cutting boards in terms of quality, sustainability, and contribution to resin art.

Why Wood Matters in Cutting Boards

The first option a person has to make in choosing a cutting board is related to the material from which it will be manufactured. Plastic, bamboo, walnut, and maple are some of the most popular options. Plastic ones are relatively cheap, but they usually wear down rather quickly, providing bacteria with grooves where they can build up. Bamboo boards are very ‘green’, but they are usually too hard, which makes knives dull faster.

But when it comes to wooden cutting boards, maple-Canadian maple, especially-offers the best of both worlds regarding hardness and softness. Hard enough to resist the repeated impact brought about by regular usage, yet soft on your knives. In addition, maple boards have a closed grain structure, meaning that it is less porous, so they are more resistant to water, bacteria, and warping.

Canadian Maple Appeal

Canada is famous for its great maple trees, which are majorly used to make furniture, flooring, and kitchen utensils. What differentiates Canadian maple from the rest is that it has a very fine and even texture, and it is light in color, not only does this look great in your kitchen, but it will also make it easier to spot the food particles, making it simpler to clean up your cutting board.

Durability: Built to Last

Among the biggest concerns with investing in a cutting board, its durability is one of them. Canadian maple is pretty well known for its longevity. Other softer types of woods tend to have a lot of scratches and dents whereas maple is highly resistant to wear and tear. If one takes good care, then a maple cutting board might last decades, developing that nice patina, which gives character to the wood.

Resin Epoxy Art: Bringing Functionality and Aesthetic Value

Resin epoxy has gained much attention in today’s cutting board market. With resin, designs range from an abstract pattern to a detailed landscape, which makes each board a piece of art. While the aesthetic nature of resin epoxy is undeniable, it adds one more layer of protection to the wood, making it more resistant to moisture and scratches.

But the question is that we are all so accustomed to is, “Is resin safe to use on cutting boards?” Well, yes, but only if the applied resin is food-safe. Here in Wholesale AP g.p., rest assured that all of our resin-epoxy cutting boards are made of food-safe materials that give you peace of mind in preparing food on these boards.

Sustainability: Choosing Maple for an Eco-Friendly Kitchen

The forestry practices in Canada are very much aware of how maple trees should be cut down responsibly to allow reforestation and maintain habitats for wildlife.

Maple vs. Walnut: Why We Prefer Maple

Many wonder how maple compares to other hardwoods, particularly walnut. And while walnut is most certainly a beautiful wood with its dark, rich tones, the reality is that maple is truly the better choice when it comes to cutting boards. First of all, maple is harder than walnut, meaning that it can sustain more regular use before deep cuts and scratches occur in the wood. This makes it perfect for those busy kitchens that need maximum durability.

Besides, the light color of maple makes this wood more practical for cutting boards because it will be easier to see food particles left on the board and hence maintain better hygiene. And if most of the time walnut was the more expensive one, maple has a more reasonable price for its quality to provide you with a decent and durable cutting board but without overpaying.
