Chopping boards that are built to last
Heartwood is the inner, denser part of a tree, forming as the tree ages.
- It’s darker in colour (deep red, brown, purple or blackish, depending on the species) as it contains resins and other substances.
- Dense, hard and decay-resistant, heartwood provides structural support to a tree and is therefore incredibly strong.
- It makes beautiful boards that are moisture-resistant, highly durable and can even have self-healing properties that protect from knife blade damage.
