Making products with olive wood is rare since it has a difficult manipulation because it is so dense, so it is a wood worked mostly by hand. Yet nowadays more and more people recognize it as an environment friendly alternative!
1. It is ideal in the kitchen for its antibacterial properties.
2. Due to its high density, it is very resistant to stains, fungi, and odors
3. Due to its low porosity, it does not absorb liquids or flavors, being perfect for cutting fresh products.
4. It has a soft and silky touch, so it is a pleasure to use this wood and its ever lasting fruity scent.
5. Olive wood does not require great care, just applying a thin layer of olive oil makes it regain its color and shine.
Here at Zytun, the wood manufacturing process is respectful of the environment and the forests. Each piece is created looking for the greatest efficiency since to obtain it the trees are not cut down but branches from trees that stopped contributing to its environment by any form. And we believe this is the next stage for its life cycle, providing us with a reliable natural option and the pursuit of living simpler, more conscious lives.
