Camphor Fact #1.


Camphor Laurel was introduced into Australia in the 1820s.


Camphor Fact #2.

Camphor Fact #3

Don't wash your wooden chopping board in a dish washer. Bleach and very hot water will dry out your board. 

Just hand wash in warm soapy water and spruce it up with grapeseed oil every now and then.

Camphor Fact  #4.

Camphor Fact #5


Camphor laurel's "long grain", medium density timber is the perfect material for wooden chopping boards - tough enough to withstand heavy use but soft enough to protect your knives.

Australian Wood Makes a Great Chopping Board. 


Naturally anti-bacterial with a soft, medium density grain, Australian camphor laurel is possibly the best timber in the world for chopping boards. So why do all the major stores only seems to offer foreign made bamboo or rubberwood cutting boards?

The answer lies in valuing margins over quality. Most imported timber boards would have a 200 or 300% mark up so it's more profitable than sourcing a quality, locally made chopping board with  environmental credentials and an affordable price.

It is depressing that even the "signature" boards from celebrity chefs are mass produced, characterless slabs with high price tags.

At woodenchoppingboards.com.au we only offer these beautiful camphor laurel chopping boards made from a plentiful and unwanted timber source in northern New South Wales.
