Food Safe Wax

Description

Food Safe Wax is a soft, creamy beeswax-based polish designed to nourish timber for food preparation areas. It is also excellent on furniture, in particular, children’s furniture or toys.

It’s important to rejuvenate and protect your chopping boards and utensils with a food-safe Chopping Board Oil first to keep them looking beautiful and safe from germs.  Then you can seal it, buff it up and maintain with this food-safe wax.  It’s in cream form so it’s much easier to apply than other harder beeswax.  Once dry you simply buff off with the Bamboo Polishing Cloths.

SMELLS FANTASTIC

• This wax has a delightful fragrance and keeps surfaces dust free and easy to clean. It’s in cream form so it’s so easy to apply!

WHAT’S IN THIS FOOD SAFE WAX BLEND?

Pure natural Beeswax and Citrus Oils (plant oils)
This means it doesn’t contain unnatural chemicals like mineral oils which are made from petroleum.

BENEFITS of protecting wood with oil and wax.

• It can be effective at preventing the growth of some types of bacteria and fungi
• It is a natural product, which means it doesn’t contain harmful chemicals
• Helps to polish wood finishes and brings back their original lustre
• Forms a protective layer on top of the wood
• Helps to prevent dust build-up (easier to keep clean)

When to Use Wax

All the oils and waxes sold here in my shop can be used to polish and protect wood, they are all natural and non-toxic plant based options unlike mineral oil which is a petroleum product.
Wax polish is not recommended on really rough wooden surfaces or furniture as it may clump in the cracks and scratches and show up when dry as a whitish colour.
For rough wood I would recommend Orange Oil instead which won’t do this.

Use on Antique Furniture

I’ve had good reports of this wax working great on antique furniture, especially after applying oil, it can help nourish and preserve the wood, bringing out its natural beauty.
I recommend you test a small area first to ensure the oil achieves the results desired on your specific type of wood, then buff with the wax afterwards to seal in the oil in and provide a light sheen to the surface.

Information on cheaper natural oils for oiling your chopping board can be viewed on this page (although they don’t work as well as these oils I use myself).
