What is The reBoard® made from?
The archived manufacturer product page identifies The reBoard® as 75% recycled plastic and 25% renewable sugarcane. Material describes the recycled portion as plastic scraps from kitchenware manufacturing, combined with renewable sugarcane for the board's intended strength and working hardness.
Is the legacy reBoard® dishwasher-safe?
Yes. Material's archived product page lists the legacy reBoard® as dishwasher-safe. The same care guidance says that if your countertop is slippery, you should place a cloth or damp paper towel underneath the board before using it; the page also notes that the full-size board fits in a dishwasher.
How can I keep The reBoard® from sliding?
Material says the reBoard® has a subtle texture on both sides to provide grip on the countertop. For an especially slippery surface, the maker recommends placing a damp towel beneath the board before cutting.
How should The reBoard® be stored?
The reBoard® has a small hole in one corner. Material says this makes the board hangable, providing a convenient storage option when it is not being used.
What are the original reBoard®'s dimensions?
The archived manufacturer page lists the full-size original reBoard® at 14.75 inches long, 10.75 inches wide, and 0.375 inches thick. Material also describes it as large enough for everyday prep while remaining small enough to fit in a dishwasher.
Is The reBoard® the same product as The MK Free Board?
No. The archived page identifies the original product as The reBoard® and lists its composition as 75% recycled plastic and 25% renewable sugarcane. Material's current URL resolves to the separately named MK Free Board, whose page lists a different plant-based bioplastic composition.
