Food-Safe Oil-Wax Finish for Wooden Chopping Boards & Kitchen Surfaces

Osmo Chopping Board Oil is a clear oil-wax finish specially formulated for wooden chopping boards, butcher blocks, charcuterie boards and other food contact surfaces. Made from natural plant oils and waxes, it penetrates deeply into the timber to provide a tough, microporous surface that won’t crack, peel, flake or blister.

Once fully dry, the finish is certified food safe (EN 1186 Part 5/14) and safe for humans, animals and plants — ideal for use in kitchens and anywhere food is prepared.

The cured surface is highly resistant to water, milk and common kitchen liquids such as wine, coffee, fruit juice and tea, which bead on the surface without leaving marks.
