No – on the contrary: titanium is soft enough to keep your knives sharp, and hard enough not to be damaged. Kitchen knives (such as those made of stainless steel) typically have a hardness of 55 to 60 HRC on the Rockwell C scale – this is a measure of how hard metal is. Our Titanium Pro Cutting Board has a hardness of approximately 36 to 40 HRC, depending on the finish. This means it's significantly softer than your knives, so your cutting edge won't become dull like it does with glass, ceramic, or some stainless steel surfaces. 🔬 Why that works: With each cut, the knife briefly touches the surface. Is that surface harder than your knife? Then your cutting edge wears out faster. If the surface is just a little softer, like with titanium, your knife stays sharp longer — without damaging the board itself. ✅ Result: your knife stays razor-sharp longer AND your cutting board stays clean. Titanium is therefore the perfect balance between hygiene, durability, and knife-friendliness.

Yes! Our cutting board is fully dishwasher-safe and designed to withstand both high temperatures and intensive washing. This makes cleaning extra easy.

Yes and no, some types of wood naturally have antibacterial properties, provided you maintain it properly. Bacteria can penetrate wood fibres and die there over time, but this doesn't automatically mean a wooden cutting board will always remain hygienic. Wood absorbs moisture and juices, which can allow bacteria to accumulate if the board is not properly dried. Cutting grooves can trap food particles, which are difficult to clean. You should treat wood regularly with salt, lemon, or baking soda to keep it clean and odor-free. To prevent drying out and cracking, you should treat wood with mineral oil or special cutting board oil. Wooden cutting boards should NOT be put in the dishwasher, as heat and water will cause them to crack and warp.

Plastic planks release microplastics, and wooden planks absorb moisture and bacteria. This cutting board combines durability, hygiene, and safety, eliminating these drawbacks.

Yes, our cutting board is BPA (bisphenol A) free! The stainless steel side contains no harmful substances, and the wheatstraw polypropylene (PP) side is specially designed as a sustainable and safe alternative without BPA. Ideal for a healthy and environmentally friendly kitchen!

No. Our Titanium Pro Cutting Board is completely PFAS-free. PFAS are harmful chemicals that are often used in non-stick coatings, paints, and some plastics. They are also called "forever chemicals" because they break down very slowly and can accumulate in your body. Many traditional plastic cutting boards or those with an antibacterial coating contain traces of PFAS — especially if they are made from cheap plastic or treated material. Our shelf is made of 100% pure titanium. 🛡️ That means: no coatings, no plastics, no chemical additives. Just pure metal, as used in medical and surgical applications. ✅ Safe for daily use ✅ No risk of chemical release ✅ Completely free of PFAS, BPA, BPS, microplastics, and other toxins
