Bamboo is stronger and more flexible than most wood, as it has longer fibres. It can grow up to one metre per day and produces twice as much oxygen compared to other wood species. The bamboo that IKEA uses is ready for harvest after 4-6 years. Bamboo is a grass, not a tree, and does not need replanting. It not only grows like grass, but spreads like grass.

There are many different kinds of chopping boards, and they're all good for different things. Kitchen work is also more hygienic when you use different chopping boards for different raw materials. Remember that the chopping board should be soft, so as not to damage the edge of the knife - materials like wood or plastic are preferable. Wooden chopping boards are more stable than plastic, while plastic is easier to lift and clean. You probably could use both kinds.

A wooden chopping board is stable and kind to knives. With the proper care, it will serve you for a very long time. Oil it before you use it for the first time. And after that, at regular intervals. Always wash it by hand and let it dry standing on its side. For a real lift - sand it and oil it - and it will be like new again.
