WHAT ARE EPICUREAN BOARDS MADE OF?Updated 2 years ago
Epicurean’s unique material is made from many layers of high-quality custom craft paper. Rolls of paper are infused with resin before being cut to length and laid by hand. Each sheet is carefully stacked, alternating the direction of the paper to achieve the ultimate balance and stability. The stacks are pressed under even heat and pressure, bonding the layers of paper together and curing the product. The sheets are then slowly cooled to produce a solid, stable food-safe sheet material.
The paper used in Epicurean’s natural and slate material is derived from virgin pulp. Epicurean’s nutmeg material color is made from 50% virgin paper and 50% recycled corrugated cardboard.
