Protect Kitchen Countertops With Cutting Boards
Protect your counter surfaces and your cutlery by choosing a
wood cutting board made from high-quality woods such as beechwood, laurel and
acacia. They're resistant to stains, scratches and bacteria. Although bamboo
cutting boards are not actually wood, they are highly durable and affordably
priced.
Choose a wood cutting board made entirely from one slab of
wood for a seamless look or a board with light to medium grain variation for
eye-catching contrast. For slicing meats, a cutting board with a built-in drip
groove around the edges will prevent unwanted liquid from draining off the edge
and onto counters. You can find this style in both wood and plastic varieties.
When selecting a plastic cutting board look for one that is
designed for heavy-duty kitchen use and made with plastic that is BPA free.
Consider purchasing a set to prevent food contamination. Many of the cutting
boards we offer at Lowes.com are also attractive enough to be used as serving
pieces for cheeses and finger foods.
