Cutting and serving board
Rubberwood is the wood of the rubber tree and is recognized as one of the most ecological woods in the world. Rubberwood is characterized by its beautiful light color, the ability to work on it and the wood is also very stable. Use The.Board to serve delicious snacks and / or drinks, or use it as a cutting board! Unlike the other The.Boards, these can be cut!
Rubber trees have been planted in large numbers in recent decades in plantations in Southeast Asia, for the production of latex. The tapped latex is used to make rubber products. After about 25 years the rubber tree loses its production power and often the plantation is burned down, so that room can be made for new plants. Nowadays, this 'waste wood' is cut down and used to make cutting boards, for example. The wood that used to be waste is now given a new function and then the cycle starts again. The wood that becomes available in this way avoids the annual felling of approximately 600,000 hectares of natural tropical forest (950,000 football fields)
