SUSTAINABLE MANUFACTURING PRACTICES
All cutting surface material waste generated from the manufacture of Epicurean® cutting surfaces is used to generate electricity at a local power plant. Epicurean products are packaged with as little packaging as required to safely get the product to your door. We use recycled cardboard boxes and recycled cardboard padding inside the box. All packaging can again be recycled by you. No water is used during the fabrication process. All Point of Purchase display fixtures are made with 100% recycled HDPE plastic.

SURFACE MATERIAL
Epicurean's® material is classified green in large part because the raw material used is derived from renewable or recycled resources. Managed and sustainable forests, habitat conservation efforts, along with prudent manufacturing practices are just some of the environmental mandates that go into the product. During the saturation and drying process, over 99% of the volatile organic compounds are incinerated. The heat from that incineration is used for the drying process to minimize thermal pollution. There is no hazardous waste generated in the process.
