Amazon.com Product Description

Preserve makes stylish, high-performance products for your home. As a company, we strive to combine socially and environmentally responsible business practices with groundbreaking design to create products that people feel good about having in their homes. We believe that choosing these products does not mean having to sacrifice quality, price, or performance.

Sustainably made personal-care products.

The Preserve Approach

We believe in expecting more out of the products that we use everyday. A product should both perform seamlessly and delight our senses. And we all deserve products that help us lead healthy lives and minimize the impact of our incredibly stressed environment. That's why we take the time to ensure that our products meet your needs intuitively and stylishly. That's why we refuse to even consider materials with even a hint of potential health risks. We make our products out of recycled #5 polypropylene plastic that can then in turn be recycled. We keep our packaging simple, and we limit carbon emissions by streamlining transportation and manufacturing. We are demanding because we know you are too!

Personal Care

Take good care of yourself. Our toothbrushes, razors, and other products are easy to use so your teeth stay clean and your skin smooth. They come in fun colors that enliven your bathroom. And they are made sustainably. When you are done using them, you can mail them back to us for recycling through our Gimme 5 program. It's a simple equation. By nurturing yourself today, you safeguard our planet's future.

Tableware

Our two lines of recycled #5 plastic dishware are must-haves for anyone who likes to entertain. Planning a backyard barbecue, our On The Go tableware is ideal for festive occasions. A small family gathering? The Everyday line is great for casual dining. Unlike other plastic tableware, both lines look good after hundreds, even thousands of uses.

Kitchen.

If you love to cook (and eat), you value the quality of your ingredients. The same thinking applies to your kitchen tools. They should be well designed to help you cook, and they should be made using sustainable practices. The end result? Healthier ecosystems, healthier growing conditions for our food, and delicious meals for you and your family.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.

Those are the principles that have driven our company since 1996 and which motivate us to encourage more households to choose our 100% recycled and recyclable products over conventional products. Our plastic is collected from individuals via our Gimme 5 program. We take this plastic, sort it, clean it, test it, recycle it, and turn it into new Preserve products. Choosing Preserve means a sizeable reduction in greenhouse gases emitted, and significantly less water, energy, oil, natural gas, and coal used in making plastic.

As we grow, our core principles remain the same.

We make our products in the USA, so that we can ship shorter distances, using less fuel and limiting our environmental footprint.

All Preserve products are dishwasher-safe and made to last--as well as to look good doing it.

Preserve products are BPA-free, Melamine-free, and made from 100% recycled plastic. By using recycled materials, we save energy, preserve natural resources, and create an incentive for communities to recycle.

All of our plastic products are recyclable, either through our mail-in take back program (toothbrushes and razor handles), at the curb in communities that recycle #5 plastic, or through our Gimme 5 bins located at many Whole Foods Market stores.

We do not test on animals. Period.

Product Description

When Preserve set out to design a cutting board,  we  wanted to address common frustrations with existing plastic boards. First,  we  textured the surface to provide better gripping. The texture also hides knife marks so the board looks good for years. Then,  we  added a curved handle to keep the board stable during chopping and to aid in transferring your food from board to bowl. Like the entire Preserve Kitchen collection, these cutting boards have incredible staying power. They are durable enough to last generations, and functional enough to be everyday essentials. And because they are recyclable, they can live on even after they no longer suit your purposes. The small board measures 10x8 inches. Preserve has been putting big ideas into small packages and finding smarter ways to make everyday products since 1996. Preserve recycles and makes all of our products in the USA. With a “Powered by Leftovers” philosophy, Preserve turns yogurt cups into toothbrushes and take-out containers into cutting boards. All Preserve products for the kitchen, table and bathroom are performance-driven, stylish and made from 100% recycled materials. Whether short-order or gourmet, good cooking depends on good tools. Preserve Kitchen offers beautifully designed items that make a statement in any kitchen. Cooks like them because they are dishwasher safe and stand up to everyday use, and the earth loves them because they’re made from 100% recycled BPA-free plastic and post-consumer recycled paper.

1.0 out of 5 stars not flat, October 9, 2009

This review is from: Preserve BPA-Free 10-by-8-Inch Cutting Board (Kitchen)

I bought a set, small and large, at a local store. I liked the recycled material and made in USA aspects. But neither is perfectly flat, they are slightly bowed so they spin on the counter. So, good material, nice color, heavy, but otherwise almost unusable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it, June 16, 2009

By 

Heidi "queenofthehivemomof5" (Wyoming, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Preserve Eco-Friendly 10-by-8-Inch Cutting Board, Red (Kitchen)

I love my new cutting board. I love the color. I love the fact that they are made with post consumer waste. I love the size. I love the shape. I love that it is made in the USA. The only thing I wish it had was a hole so that I could hang it on a hook in my kitchen. Other than that, I highly recommend this cutting board.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Vampire of Cutting Boards, November 14, 2010

By 

kimpo76 (Yuma, AZ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Preserve 14-by-11-Inch Cutting Board, Red (Kitchen)

This product is beautiful. Beautiful and dangerous. Like any vampire, its beauty will draw you in...then BAM...it wants your blood.

The red color really livens up my kitchen and makes me want to take pretty pictures of the items I'm chopping (I don't actually do it, but I want to). Like everyone else, I love that it's constructed of recycled materials and made in the USA. However, it spins and it's uneven. More than once, I've held onto the item I'm cutting and the board has spun my hand under where my knife is chopping. I'm certain that if I leave the board this way I will eventually chop off a finger. I'll be making a trip to the hardware store to see if I can get some rubber nubs or something to glue to the bottom of it...in the meantime, I'll probably continue to use it anyway because those vampires are so damn irresistible.
