Are All Woods Safe for Snack Boards?

Not all woods are created equal when it comes to kitchen safety. Snack boards, which are in direct contact with a variety of foods, demand materials that are certified and toxin-free.

The Importance of Certification

Boards used for serving cheese, nuts, and appetizers must be certified for food contact. The LFGB certified flexible design Acacia wood snack board offers assurance that the material is tested to avoid contamination.

Risks of Non-Certified Woods

Uncertified or improperly sealed boards may leach harmful substances into food or allow bacterial growth due to moisture absorption—particularly dangerous for porous woods like red oak or treated lumber.

Smart Solutions for Healthy Kitchens

Products like the Toxin-free custom Acacia wood snack board provide confidence for both daily use and formal dining. Their non-toxic finish and food-safe construction make them ideal for all ages and meals.
