Most cutting boards shed microplastics into your food with every slice. Studies show that a single plastic cutting board can release over 1,100 microplastic particles per use, adding up to 50 grams of plastic ingested per person per year. Our cutting boards are made from Richlite, a paper composite pressed from FSC-certified and recycled paper. It does not shed microplastics. Developed for commercial kitchens and trusted by professional chefs, Richlite delivers the knife-feel of wood without the upkeep. The non-porous surface resists bacteria, odors, and moisture. No oiling. No warping. No splitting. Just rinse or toss it in the dishwasher. Set includes three sizes (Small 10x7", Medium 14x11", Large 17x11") with dual-sided surfaces for separating proteins and produce. Medium and Large boards feature juice grooves.

Research published in Environmental Health Perspectives (2025) found that polypropylene and polyethylene cutting boards release microplastic particles that accumulate with each use. Over 12 cycles of simulated food prep, plastic boards released 1.28-1.42 grams of microplastics total, with particle concentrations increasing as the board wore down. Made In Cutting Boards are made from Richlite paper composite, not plastic, and do not shed microplastics. ### What is the safest cutting board material? The safest cutting board materials are those that don't shed microplastics into your food. Made In Cutting Boards use Richlite paper composite, which is NSF-certifiable, non-porous, and does not shed microplastics. Unlike wood, Richlite doesn't need oiling or conditioning. Unlike bamboo, it contains no plastic adhesive bonding. Unlike plastic, it doesn't degrade into particles that end up in your body. ### What is Richlite? Is it the same as Epicurean? Richlite is a paper composite material made by saturating FSC-certified or 100% recycled paper with food-safe phenolic resin, then pressing it into dense, durable sheets. Made In Cutting Boards use the same category of material found in Epicurean cutting boards. Independent lab testing has found no traces of microplastic particles after simulated use. Richlite has been trusted in commercial kitchens for decades. ### Do Made In Cutting Boards harbor bacteria? No. Unlike wood, which is porous and can trap bacteria in grain and knife marks, Made In Cutting Boards use a non-porous Richlite surface that resists bacteria, odors, and moisture absorption. The boards are dishwasher safe for easy sanitizing. The dual-sided design also lets you dedicate one side to raw proteins and the other to produce. ### Are Made In Cutting Boards dishwasher safe? Yes. Unlike traditional wood boards that require hand washing and regular oiling, Made In Cutting Boards go straight in the dishwasher with no special care. No mineral oil. No conditioning. No maintenance. ### Will Made In Composite Paper Cutting Boards dull my knives? No. Made In's Richlite paper composite is knife-friendly, similar to end-grain wood in feel. It won't dull blades the way glass, ceramic, or marble surfaces do. The surface is forgiving enough for daily use without causing premature edge wear. ### How are Made In Composite Paper Cutting Boards different from wood cutting boards? Wood boards also do not shed microplastics, but they require regular oiling, can crack or warp if put in a dishwasher, absorb moisture, and can harbor bacteria in deep knife marks over time. Made In Cutting Boards have the warmth and knife-feel of wood with none of the upkeep. They're non-porous, dishwasher safe, and won't split, crack, or warp. ### What sizes are included in the Made In Cutting Board Set? The Made In Cutting Board Set includes three boards: Small (10" x 7") for garnishes and small prep, Medium (14" x 11") with juice grooves for everyday cooking, and Large (17" x 11") with juice grooves for carving and large-format prep. All Made In Cutting Boards are 0.24" thin and lightweight. ## Customer Reviews ### ★★★★★ Better than expected Boards are better than I expected and all that I want. — AB ### ★★★★☆ lightweight alternative to wood cutting boards I like the different sizes and the lightweight. I can’t physically manage my heavy wood cutting boards anymore. I’m glad they are not plastic and easy to care for. It’s just what I needed. I was surprised that you still have little cuts in the board after use, I wasn’t expecting that at all, but still the best alternative to wood boards I’ve seen. I’ve had them for a month or so. — SRS ### ★★★★★ Great Product Great cutting boards! The variety in size is exactly what we looking for! 10/10 — Jake ### ★★★★★ GREAT cutting board set These cutting board may seem expensive, but trust me, they are worth it! Super durable, easy to clean, and they don't get cut marks even from the sharpest knives! — Chris M. ### ★★★★★ Right fit for my needs... thank you While I really like our wood cutting board, I worried about trying to keep it sanitary with all the things I need to use a cutting board for. I have been looking for a non-plastic option that would be bother sturdy as well as easy to clean and these fit my needs. A bamboo board was good but just not as sturdy as I wanted. I like the built-in "moat" with these boards in case I am cutting something jucier so it does not simply run onto the countertop — CroneCat ### ★★★★★ Amazing Best washable cutting boards I've ever used. They will not warp or lose their shape in the dishwasher. A must have. — Mark I ### ★★★★★ Nice cutting boards So far so good. I like that they are easy to clean, don’t show a bunch of cut marks, and no microplastics! The 3 different sizes is really handy too. — Heather ### ★★★★★ Easy care Awesome cutting boards! I recently switched from plastic to wood but I missed the dishwashability. These were a perfect solution. — Hunter ### ★★★★★ Excellent, easy to clean! Excellent replacement for our old bamboo and plastic cutting boards. Clean easily and resist all the odors from almost constant garlic, shallot and onion prep. Had been concerned that the large might be too large but it is perfect on the prep station. Highly recommend! — Jessamine ### ★★★★★ Terrific composite paper cutting boards! Durable, plastic free, dish washer friendly and easy on knife blades. These boards check all the boxes! — scotland gal ### ★★★★★ Big step up from plastic These cutting boards are great if you don't want to shred microplastics into your food and also don't want the hassle of maintaining a nice wooden cutting board with regular hand washing, oils or beeswax, etc. They smell a little strange out of the box but that goes away after the first dishwashing cycle. — Conor ### ★★★☆☆ Sustainable but slides around Sustainable but a little slippery! I wish there was rubber on the bottom to keep the board from sliding — Liz ### ★★★★★ Worry free cutting board I have been trying to get away from plastic cutting boards. When I saw this board from Made In, I knew it was a great option. It is easy on knife edges, very simple to clean and light to handle. They are my "go to" when it is time to prep. — Rich F ### ★★★★★ Love these cutting boards I’m very happy with the size and weight of these cutting boards and I like the channel around the edges to collect any juices. They do scratch easily from the knives but that doesn’t bother me, especially since I know they are made with safe products without worry of plastics and other chemicals. — Miechelle ### ★★★★★ Great cutting boards These cutting boards are great. They do need a non-slip base (think wet towel or paper towel), but once they’re stabilized they’re really wonderful and ease our minds as we’re not using plastic or wood. We’re very happy with our purchase! — Amy H ### ★★★★★ Best Decision to Upgrade Recently got rid of all our plastic cutting boards. These are easy to clean, light, and have a good feel when cutting. So happy with our decision to level up. — Elle ### ★★★★★ Into these Boards Love that they can go in dishwasher and hold up well. Easy and convenient — J ### ★★★★★ Cutting boards Great size for all 3. Wash in dishwasher before use to remove smell. — Ken McD ### ★★★★☆ Great quality, easy to maintain, simple to store Excellent quality boards and easy to clean and store. Come out of the dishwasher looking fresh without any warping. Would love to be able to buy these individually rather than as a set since I don't really need 3 of them. — Arthur ### ★★★★★ get these cutting boards now! all the best features of plastic-- dishwasher safe, no maintenance, lightweight-- with all the best features of wood-- no particles in your food, sustainable, kind to your knifes. really glad I purchased these when they came back in stock. only suggestion is a larger size for carving roasts, etc? — megreco118 ### ★★★★★ Great set Switched from plastic and bamboo. These are the best of both worlds. No plastic and dishwasher safe. — Steven ### ★★★★☆ Nice boards, scratches easier than expected These feel really nice and are the perfect sizes. My only complaint, which maybe should have been something to expect, but they seem to scratch pretty easy. After one use, there were cut marks and I didn't think I was cutting super "hard" or anything. I was also worried at first as they had a pretty strong odor after the first wash (hand wash). I read online this type of material is known to have an odor the first couple washes and it did seem to go away after several uses. Overall I really like them, but they are certainly priced more than I think they should be. — Ryan ### ★★★★★ Great multi use and machine washable Geat multi use boards and are machine washable. Perfect for any home kitchen where you're preparing various things at once. It allows me to prep without cross contaminating. — Ian ### ★★★★★ Would Recommend Love these cutting boards. I was looking for an alternative to plastic that could go in the dishwasher. They are great. — Susan ### ★★★★★ Worth every penny We purchased these cutting boards and within a week of using them we tossed all of our plastic boards. They’re easy to clean, great selection of sizes and appear to be holding up well to daily use. Time will tell but so far we are impressed, as always, with the quality of Made In accessories. — James ### ★★★★★ Nice set These boards are a nice range in sizes and appears to be made of quality professional materials. Look nice, work well, no smells. — CJ ### ★★★★★ Impressed! Great Product! These are outstanding. very thin and easy to use and clean, but also very sturdy. Traded out older "plastic" cutting boards for these to leverage with everyday use and couldn't be happier with them. — Brad Smedberg ### ★★★★★ Composite beats plastic We’ve been eliminating plastic from our kitchen as much as possible and this set of three cutting boards were exactly what we were looking for. Reasonably priced, fast shipping. Definitely will buy some more - would really love if there was an even larger size! — MickC ### ★★★★★ Safe and Easy! At first I doubted the "macro" need to replace all our plastic cutting boards, but Made In's Composite Paper Cutting Boards have made it easy to get on board with the switch. They offer the same convenience and ease of care as plastic, without any of the "micro" concerns! I love my large wooden boards as well, but it's nice to not worry about if each side and edge has been sufficiently moistened in the cleaning process! For every day use, I am loving the composite boards! — Matt ### ★★★★★ Great cutting boards! These composite paper cutting boards replaced all of my wood and plastic boards. They are great. They don't scratch, clean easily, look good, and are not toxic. — Kristian --- URL: https://madeincookware.com/products/cutting-board-set/3-piece-set
