At an impressive four inches thick, the Lyptus 18" Round Chinese Chopping Block literally rises above its competition. This sturdy chopping block is constructed of gorgeous end-grain Lyptus, a new premium hardwood that combines the strength and density of maple with the inviting look of cherry and the fine grain of mahogany. It's treated with a natural food-safe oil finish that protects the wood and brings out the beauty of the block's intricate checkerboard pattern. Super-sized to handle your biggest chopping tasks, this butcher block will perform for you like a true champion.
The Lyptus 18" Round Chinese Chopping Block is constructed of premium end-grain Lyptus, making it a supremely durable block that's easy on your knives. When cutting or chopping, the end-grain wood fibers absorb the impact of the blade, keeping your knives sharper longer than with ordinary wood or acrylic boards. The forgiving end-grain surface is also resistant to nicks and gouges--which prevents bacteria from entering the wood, extends its longevity, and keeps the board looking new longer.
Lyptus is produced from a Eucalyptus hybrid raised in South America using sustainable forestry practices, including minimally invasive harvesting and the preservation of native ecosystems. This renewable resource offers an ideal choice for conscientious consumers who desire a richly colored hardwood that doesn't harm the environment.

John Boos & Co is firmly committed to managing environmental matters as an integral part of their business practice. Some of the steps they take to accomplish their “green” status include manufacturing wood products that emit far less carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, methane and other gases than processing non-wood substitutes; using only formaldehyde free and low emission formaldehyde gluing processes in manufacturing our butcher blocks; and having active recycling programs in place with 95% of all raw materials, scrap, and even their sawdust recycled as fuel to heat their kilns. Boos’ sawdust is also recycled as livestock bedding for their local agricultural needs.
